Artist: Tom Russell
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO]
[G]
[VERSE 1]
There's a penthouse on top of the old [Bm]Plaza Hotel
In El [C]Paso, looking out on Jua[G]rez
Liz Taylor lived there with her [Bm]husband Nicky Hilton
At least, [C]that's what the newspaper said [G]
[VERSE 2]
But now the [C]Plaza's closed down, Jua[Bm]rez is on fire
And the [Am]news came tonight that Liz [G]died
And one old alligator, in the [Bm]Plaza Square fountain
Looked [C]up at that penthouse and [D]cried
[VERSE 3]
She chased [C]furious love, through her [G]furious seasons
Always [D]dancing between the [G]rhyme and the reason
To[C]night in El Paso, I'll raise a [Bm]double gin fizz
For the [Am]love and the [D]legend of [G]Liz
