Casey Donahew Band - Josie escalido

^DJosie Escalido She lived south of the border In a church her granddaddy's daddy bu^Ailt A little Catholic mission Where she sp^A7ent her days wishing That he would come along and she'd be sa^Dved

^DJimmy was an outlaw An outcast from the bad lands He rode a horse as black as his he^Aart ^A7 Stayed hopped up on mezcal Chased whiskey with saloon gals But he never could get Josie off his m^Dind

He said meet me after m^Gidnight I'll be riding hot and fa^Dst And our love is like a slow^A dance I'm just trying to make it l^Dast And I'm laying down my s^Gix guns And surrendering my he^Dart It'll be rosary and sa^Angria Tequila and the cro^Gss Outlaws, angels and th^De lost

^DJimmy 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

^DBut the past is like a storm That crashes in from the north Rode south with the posse set on death ^A B^A7lood all over Jimmy's hands and Jo^Asie lying in the desert sand With a bullet that tore Jimmy's heart in t^Dwo

And he screamed meet me after m^Gidnight I'll be riding hot and f^Dast And our love is like a s^Alow dance I'm just trying to make it l^Dast And I'm laying down my s^Gix guns And surrendering my he^Dart It'll be rosary and s^Aangria Tequila and the cr^Goss Outlaws, angels and ^Dthe lost

^DWhen you're searching for the devil Turns out he's not hard to find He rides a horse as black as his hea^Art 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

^DJimmy buried Josie In the ashes of that chapel Left the rangers lying in the s^Aun Rode out toward the bad lands And maybe God will understand That sometimes even angels will get lo^Dst

He cried meet me after mid^Gnight I'll be riding hot and f^Dast And our love is like a sl^Aow dance I'm just trying to make it l^Dast And I'm laying down my s^Gix guns And surrendering my^D heart It'll be rosary and ^Asangria Tequila and the cr^Goss *no strum* Outlaws, angels and the lost
