[Verse 1]
A
He looked down into her brown eyes
E
And said "Say a prayer for me"
E7
She threw her arms around him
A
Whispered "God will keep us free"
A
They could hear the riders coming
A7 D
He said "This is my last fight
A
If they take me back to Texas
E7 A
They won't take me back alive"
[Chorus]
A
There were seven Spanish angels
E7
At the altar of the sun
E
They were praying for the lovers
A
In the valley of the gun
A
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
A7 D
There was thunder from the throne
A
And seven Spanish angels
E7 A
Took another angel home

[Verse 2]
Bb
She reached down and picked the gun up
F
That lay smoking in his hand
F
She said, "Father please forgive me
Bb
I can't make it without my man"
Bb
And she knew the gun was empty
Bb7 Eb
And she knew she couldn't win
Bb
Her final prayer was answered
F7 Bb
When the rifles fired again
[Chorus]
Bb
There were seven Spanish angels
F
At the altar of the sun
F7
They were praying for the lovers
Bb
In the valley of the gun
Bb
When the battle stopped, the smoke cleared
Bb7 Eb
There was thunder from the throne
Bb
And seven Spanish angels
F7 Bb
Took another angel home
[Chorus]
Bb
There were seven Spanish angels
F
At the altar of the sun, oh no oh
F7
They were praying for the lovers
Bb
In the valley of the gun
Bb
When the battle stopped, the smoke cleared
Bb7 Eb
There was thunder from the throne
Bb
And seven Spanish angels
F7 Bb
Took another angel home
[Outro]
Eb Bb
And seven Spanish angels
F7 Bb Eb
Took another angel home

Took another angel home oooh
