[F] x3
He looked [F] down into her brown eyes,
And said, "Say a prayer for [C7] me".
[C7] And she threw her arms around him,
Whispered, "God will keep us [F] free".
[F] They could hear the riders coming,
He said, "This is [F7] my last [Bb] fight.
And if they take me back to [F] Texas,
They won't [C7] take me back a-[F]live".
{soc}
There were [F] Seven Spanish Angels,
At the Altar of the [C7] Sun.
They were [C7] praying for the lovers,
In the Valley of the [F] Gun.
[F] And when the battle stopped, and the smoke cleared,
There was [F7] thunder from the [Bb] throne.
And the Seven Spanish [F] Angels,
Took a-[C7]nother Angel [F] home. [F]
{eoc}
She reached [F] down and picked the gun up,
That lay smoking in his [C7] hand.
She said, "[C7] Father, please forgive me,
I can't make it without my [F] man".
[F] And she knew the gun was empty,
And she [F7] knew she could not [Bb] win.
But her final prayer was [F] answered,
When the [C7] rifles fired a-[F]gain.

[F] And when the battle stopped, and the smoke cleared,
There was [F7] thunder from the [Bb] throne.
And the Seven Spanish [F] Angels,
Took [C7] another Angel [F] home.
