A D
In old Mexico I stand on the square in Matamoros
E7 A
Round the plaza the couples are walking to music so sweet
A D
I found my love not too long ago in Matamoros
E7 A
But I’m feeling low as the beggar who sits in the street
D
Oh the promises that she made with eyes black as midnight
B7 E7
How could I know how fickle her promise could be
A D
Now I’m back to find what I feel is mine in Matamoros
E7 A
And there’ll be bad trouble if I catch her cheating on me
A D
Streets are narrow and dark and Tequila runs free in Matamoros
E7 A
I stop for one moment outside of Miguel’s swinging door
A D
My heart breaks to hear the same haunting sound of Grenada
E7 A
She once called it our song and vowed she’d be mine evermore
D
Then across the square with this wild young Vaquero I see her
B7 E7
Laughing and dancing and tossing her raven black hair
A D
Fate may take a hand when I face this man from Matamoros
E7 A
For the love of my woman is one thing that I'll never share
A D
Now I walk in the night far away from the lights of Matamoros
E7 A
And recall the last moments when I knew she loved me more than life
A D
I can still hear her cry I love you and I’ll prove it Mañana
E7 A
Then seeing my danger she jumped in front of his knife
D
I know the stories they’ll tell in the dim lit casinos
B7 E7
Of the raven haired beauty who for her love lay dead on the floor
A D
They’ll speak of the fight with the gringo that night in Matoamoros
E7 A
And wonder what happened for he never returned anymore
