Spoken : G This is the C story of El Lute
G a man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal
D because he was poor, but he refused to accept his G fate
And today his honour has been restored
Intro: G D C D G – G D C G – G D C G
1. G He was only nineteen and was sentenced to die
for something that somebody else did, and blamed on El C Lute
Am Then they changed it to life, and so he could escape
From then on they chased him, and D searched for him day and night G all over Spain
But the search was in D7 vain for El G Lute
Chorus: G7 He had only seen the C dark side of life, the man they called El G Lute
And he wanted a D7 home just like you and like me in a country where G all would be free
G7 So he taught himself to C read and to write, it didn’t help El G Lute
He was one who had D7 dared to escape overnight
They had to C find El G Lute
Instrument: G D C D G – G D C G – G D C G –Gm
Soon the fame of Gm his name, spread like wild fire all over the D7 land
Cm with a price on his head people still gave him bread and they D gave him a hand
Gm For they D7 knew he was right, and his G fight was their fight
2. No one G gave you a chance in the Spain of those days
On the walls every place they had put up the face of El C Lute
Am And he robbed where he could just like once Robin Hood
They finally D7 caught him and that seemed the end but they G caught him in vain
‘cause a D change came for Spain and El G Lute
Chorus: G7 He had only seen the C dark side of life, the man they called El G Lute
And he wanted a D7 home just like you and like me in a country where G all would be free
G7 And then freedom really C came to his land and also to El G Lute
Now he walks in the D7 light of a sunny new day, he man they C called El G Lute
