Marty Robbins - Meet Me Tonight In Laredo guitar chord

D G

He met her one night in Laredo

D A

Just a wild commancharo they say

D G

They told her that he'd been an outlaw

A D

And she'd have to send him away

They warned her of toil and hardship

And a life full of heartache and tears

Then one day he sent her a message

The one she'd been waiting to hear

Chorus:

D G

Meet me tonight in Laredo

D A

Wait til the moon's hangin' low

D G

Meet me tonight in Laredo

A D

We'll soon be in old Mexico

That night as they slipped thru the darkness

To the place where the horses were tied

He whispered a prayer for tomorrow

That she would be safe by his side

She smiled as they climbed in the saddle

And as swift as the wild prairie wind

They rode to Madre Sierra

Repeating these words once again

Chorus

And now in their own hacienda

In the glow of the soft candle light

The hands that once held a six gun

Are holding their baby tonight

She echo's his God will go with us

And at night when the moons hanging low

She smiles as she fondly remembers

The words he had said long ago

Chorus
