[G] [D] [A] [D]
[VERSE 1]
[D]Josie Escalido
She lived south of the border
In a church her granddaddy's daddy bu[A]ilt
A little Catholic mission
Where she sp[A7]ent her days wishing
That he would come along and she'd be sa[D]ved
[VERSE 2]
[D]Jimmy was an outlaw
An outcast from the bad lands
He rode a horse as black as his he[A]art [A7]
Stayed hopped up on mezcal
Chased whiskey with saloon gals
But he never could get Josie off his m[D]ind
[CHORUS]
He said meet me after m[G]idnight
I'll be riding hot and fa[D]st
And our love is like a slow[A] dance
I'm just trying to make it l[D]ast
And I'm laying down my s[G]ix guns
And surrendering my he[D]art
It'll be rosary and sa[A]ngria
Tequila and the cro[G]ss
Outlaws, angels and th[D]e lost
[INTERLUDE]
[G] [D] [A] [D]
[VERSE 3]
[D]Jimmy married Josie
In that little mountain chapel
He made a vow to Josie and the God [A]
He'd turn from his wicked ways
And leave behind his outlaw days
And pray for forgiveness from his sins[D]
[VERSE 4]
[D]But the past is like a storm
That crashes in from the north
Rode south with the posse set on death [A]
B[A7]lood all over Jimmy's hands and
Jo[A]sie lying in the desert sand
With a bullet that tore Jimmy's heart in t[D]wo
[CHORUS]
And he screamed meet me after m[G]idnight
I'll be riding hot and f[D]ast
And our love is like a s[A]low dance
I'm just trying to make it l[D]ast
And I'm laying down my s[G]ix guns
And surrendering my he[D]art
It'll be rosary and s[A]angria
Tequila and the cr[G]oss
Outlaws, angels and [D]the lost
[INTERLUDE]
[G] [D] [A] [D]
[VERSE 5]
[D]When you're searching for the devil
Turns out he's not hard to find
He rides a horse as black as his hea[A]rt
Hell and fire with two six gun
A black horse on a dead end run
When he rode into the rangers camp at dawn [D]
[BRIDGE]
[D]Jimmy buried Josie
In the ashes of that chapel
Left the rangers lying in the s[A]un
Rode out toward the bad lands
And maybe God will understand
That sometimes even angels will get lo[D]st
[CHORUS]
He cried meet me after mid[G]night
I'll be riding hot and f[D]ast
And our love is like a sl[A]ow dance
I'm just trying to make it l[D]ast
And I'm laying down my s[G]ix guns
And surrendering my[D] heart
It'll be rosary and [A]sangria
Tequila and the cr[G]oss
*no strum*
Outlaws, angels and the lost
