Caballo Diablo

Chris Ledoux

 AmGFE
 Wild as a coastal barranca, swift as the wind blowinâ free
 AmG
With two eyes like fire brands that glow in the night
 FE
Somewhere up there heâs waitinâ for me
 AmGFE
And he knows that Iâm cominâ for him, And I just canât rest Îtil I find
 AmG
That raven black stallion that wears no manâs brand
 FE
with a wild restless spirit like mine
Chorus
 AmGAm
 They call him Caballo Diablo, half horse half devil they say
 AmGFGAm
 Caballo Diablo, the outlaw up a top the Sierra Madre
 AmGFE
 Two men before tried to take him, they had their chance one by one
 AmG
But each met his fate when those flashinâ black hooves
 FE
brought death ÎNeath the Mexican sun
 AmGFE
 Still I canât leave, I must find him,  You fool of a horse canât you
see?
 AmGFE
                              I may be half man, but the other halfâs devil, And youâre just exactly
like me
Chorus
 AmGFE
 Even the breeze has stopped movinâ all hush now, be still,
 AmG
 Donât make a sound stay close to the ground
 FE
ÎCuz heâs waitinâ just over that hill
 AmGFE
 Down wind behind him move quickly, do it fast now, heâs startinâ to stir
 AmG
Grab a handful of mane, then up on to his back,
 FE
And start rakinâ him down with my spurs
 AmGFE
But try as he will he canât shake me as over the precipice we go
 AmGFE
To shed the life blood of a horse and a man on the rocky sierra below
Chorus
