about

Saw a tweet from a band that was thanking the previous night's audience... in El Paso. I've never been there, but it lead me to imagine what it'd be like. And the song wrote itself.

lyrics

C Em
El Paso I love you
F C
Though I've never been there
C Em
El Paso it's true
F G
Guess what I just don't care
Am C
You sound like a fun time
F C
Like a girl with a smile
Am
You can have my last dime
F G
And my heart for a while

C Em
El Paso I love you
F C
Like a sailor loves the sea
C
El Paso show me how to
Be a man who's really free

You sound like an old friend
And a night on the town
Like the rules we will bend
When no one's around

El Paso I love you
Like the memory of a dream
El Paso I love you
Like the coolness of a stream

You look like the fire
That's missing from my life
Like the curves I admire
On someone else's wife
