Calexico - Ballad Of Cable Hogue Ukulele

Em
Am


Couplets

Am				   G			     Am
I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run

Am			     G
got myself a little goldmine to bank on

Dm 			          Am
one day my heart sank when I saw Madame in town

  Am       G       F			Am
I knew her love would be the death of mine


L'amour passé, l'amour obGète.
Pourquoi perdre sa vie à chercher l'or d'un coeur?
Je ne me noierai  pas dans ce désert mystique.
Je ferme mes comptes et je repars.

Refrain

C			     G
Do me a Favor while I'm hanging here

C				 Am
Take this gold and go and hide

Am			     G	    Am
ne gigote pas chéri sur ta corde pendue

	Am    G	  F		Am
cn't worry I'll be free in no time.


Jouer un couplet sans chanter

Couplet 3

Am				 G			  Am
She promised me she would be there when I'd return

Am 				   G
she didn't say she'd have a army there as well

Dm						Am
she whispered, "J'taime Baby," as she fired that gun at me.

Am  G  F		   Am
mais je n'ai plus de temps


Refrain

   C				  G
I should've stayed way out yonder

	 C             		    Am 
better off with the scorpi-ons and snakes

Am						G		   Am
Every act which has no heart will be found out in the end

    Am	G  F	  Am
Yes I'm a little late this time,

	    Am   G  F		     Mim
cause her love would be the death of mine,

	    Am
mine, all mine
