The Ballad Of Elano Deleon

D D D F#m E Elanito De Leon rides his bike four miles from home D A E A To work hard in the fields of his endeavor C#m F#m Elanito's momma sighed, Dios mio will provide D A E A And let our humble home survive forever F#m The night is late, where can he be Bm It's after dark she can barely see F#m The gatepost where he parks his bike Bm A E A The hours they start seeming like forever F#m Bm F#m Bm A E A F#m Now the weeks have come and gone Bm No Elano DeLeon F#m D A E A We can't lose hope we pray for his survival F#m Still his momma's mind is full E Of thinking the unthinkable D He is such a good boy A E A Dios mio F#m Elanito DeLeon Bm We feel so helpless and alone F#m What can we do it hurts so bad Bm A E A We are all so very sad without you F#m E Elanito De Leon rides his bike four miles from home D A E A To work hard in the fields of his endeavor
