Bm
Texas night, lovely senorita,
F#
wonderin by, cuaght my eye
                                          Bm
and as we danced, i knew id never let her go
Bm
stars looked down, flashin thata warnin
F#
man beware, I didnt care,
                                                Bm
caught somwhere, tween midnight and the mornin glow.

     Em                           Bm
her hair was black as ebony, her skin was
soft and white.
     F#
her perfume filled my head with dreams,
my heart beat like a tamborine.

Chorus:
      D                                      G
she whispered low, somethin in spanish and flashed
those green eyes.
      D                             A
the moonlight and tequilla blinded me
to her disguise.
 D                                        G
lips like whine, brushed against mine and as
    D/F#     Em
she lured me in,
           F#                                    Bm
I shoulda seen the devil's thumbprint, plain as sin.

Morning light through the tattered curtains
Hotel room, Clock says noon,
I rubbed my head and feel a burning in my brain
She stole my watch, stole a hundred dollars,
left me flat, but worse than that
She took my heart and didn't even leave her name

Well I guess she made a fool of me,
I bet I'm not the first
My head tells me its over now,
but my heart can't help rememberin' how

Chorus

Her Hair was black as ebony,
her skin was soft and white
Her perfume filled my head with dreams,
My heart beat like a tambourine

Chorus

Yeah I should've seen the Devil's
Thumbprint plain as sin
