[G] [C]
This is the story of El Lute
[G]
a man who was born to be hunted like a wild animal
[D] [G]
because he was poor but he refused to accept his fate
and today his honour has been restored.

[Verse 1]
[G]
He was only nineteen and was sentenced to die
[C] [Am]
for something that somebody else did and blamed on El Lute.
Then they changed it to life and so he could escape
[D]
from then on they chased him and searched for him day and night
[G] [D] [D7] [G]
all over Spain but the search was in vain for El Lute.
[Chorus]
[G7] [C] [G]
He had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute
[D] [D7]
and he wanted a home just like you and like me
[G] [G7]
in a country where all would be free.
[C] [G]
So he taught himself to read and to write it didn't help El Lute
[D] [D7]
he was one who had dared to escape overnight
[C] [G]
they had to find El Lute.

[Bridge]
[Gm] [D]
Soon the fame of his name spread like wild fire all over the land
[Cm]
with a price on his head people still gave him bread
[D] [Gm]
and they gave him a hand
[D] [G]
for they knew he was right and his fight was their fight.
[Verse 2]
[G]
No one gave you a chance in the Spain of those days
[C] [Am]
on the walls every place they had put up the face of El Lute.
And he robbed where he could just like once Robin Hood
[D]
they finally caught him and that seemed the end.
[G] [D]
But they caught him in vain 'cause a change came for Spain
[G]
and El Lute.
[Chorus]
[G7] [C] [G]
He had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute
[D] [D7]
and he wanted a home just like you and like me
[G] [G7]
in a country where all would be free.
[C] [G]
And then freedom really came to his land and also to El Lute
[D] [D7]
Now he walks in the light of a sunny new day
[C] [G]
The man they called El Lute
[Outro]
[G7] [C] [G]
He had only seen the dark side of life the man they called El Lute
[D] [D7]
and he wanted a home just like you and like me
[G] [G7]
in a country where all would be free.
