Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Hills of Old Juarez
Roger, Glad to see you up and around. Thanks for the lyrics. Just one correction that I noticed. "My partner was the CheeWah Kid. Straight off of the rez." The CheeWah I think is a shortening of the word Chiuahua and pronounced with a Texas drawl. While "rez" is southwestern indian slang for reservation. I really appreciate you taking the time to figure out the chords. I am not very good at it, so if the chords don't come to me pretty easily I tend to give up and move on until I can learn the song from someone. God how I envy people who have the ear and the patience for sitting down and figuring out songs. I would love to repay you for your efforts. Is there any Tom Russell song you would like chords and lyrics for? I have a number of his songs that I have gotten from various web sites. If I can be of help let me know. Ron.
