[D]He met her one night in L[G]aredo
Just a [D]wild commancharo they s[A]ay
They [D]told her that he'd been an o[G]utlaw
And [A]she'd have to send him [D]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]Meet me tonight in L[G]aredo
Wait [D]til the moon's hangin' [A]low
Meet [D]me tonight in L[G]aredo
We'll s[A]oon be in old Me[D]xico
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
