Romance In Durango Uke tab by Bob Dylan

D                                    A
Hot chilli peppers in the blistering sun
                       G    D
Dust on my face and my cape,
                        A
Me and Magdalena on the run
                             G     D
I think this time we shall escape.

D                                A
Sold my guitar to the baker's son
                                G   D  A
For a few crumbs and a place to hide,
                      A
But I can get another one
                                  G     D
And I'll play for Magdalena as we ride.

No llores, mi querida

Dios nos vigila
                               G      D
Soon the horse will take us to Durango.
A
Agarrame, mi vida

Soon the desert will be gone
                              G     D
Soon you will be dancing the fandango.

D                                    A
Past the Aztec ruins and the ghosts of our people
                            G   D
Hoofbeats like castanets on stone.
                                     A
At night I dream of bells in the village steeple
                             G    D
Then I see the bloody face of Ramon.

D                                   A
Was it me that shot him down in the cantina
                             G  D
Was it my hand that held the gun?
                      A 
Come, let us fly, my Magdalena
                                         G    D
The dogs are barking and what's done is done.

No llores, mi querida

                            G        D

D                                A
At the corrida we'll sit in the shade
                                  G  D
And watch the young torero stand alone.
                                  A
We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed
                                G     D
When they rode with Villa into Torreon.

D                                         A
Then the padre will recite the prayers of old
                                   G   A
In the little church this side of town.
                               A
I will wear new boots and an earring of gold
                                   G             D
You'll shine with diamonds in your wedding gown.

D                               A
The way is long but the end is near
                       G    D
Already the fiesta has begun.
                       A
The face of God will appear
                         G       D
With His serpent eyes of obsidian.

D                              A
Was that the thunder that I heard?
                                     G  D
My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
                             A
Come sit by me, don't say a word
                        G    D
Oh, can it be that I am slain?

D                            A
Quick, Magdalena, take my gun 
                                     G   D
Look up in the hills, that flash of light.
                    A
Aim well my little one
                               G   D
We may not make it through the night.

A
No llores, mi querida
