Intro
E A E F# B E A E B E
[Verse 1]
E A
Spanish is the lovin’ tongue,
E F# B
Soft as music, light as spray.
E A
‘Twas a girl I learnt it from,
E B E
Livin’ down Sonora way.
A B A E
I don’t look much like a lover,
E C#m F# B
Yet I say her love words over
E A
Often when I’m all alone -
E B E
“Mi amor, mi corazon.”
[Verse 2]
E A
Nights when she knew where I would ride
E F# B
She would listen for my spurs,
E A
Throw those big doors open wide,
E B E
Raise them laughin’ eyes of hers
A B A E
And my heart would nigh stop beatin’
E C#m F# B
When I heard her tender greetin’,
E A
Whispered soft for me alone
E B E
“Mi amor! mi corazon!”
[Verse 3]
E A
Moonlight in the patio,
E F# B
Old Señora noddin’ near,
E A
Me and Juana talkin’ low
E B E
So her madre couldn’t hear -
A B A E
How those hours would go a-flyin'
E C#m F# B
And too soon I’d hear her sighin’
E A
In her little sorry tone -
E B E
“Adios, mi corazon!”
[Verse 4]
E A
But one time I had to fly
E F# B
For a foolish gamblin’ fight,
E A
And we said a swift goodbye
E B E
In that black, unlucky night.
A B A E
But traveling north her words kept riniging
E C#m F# B
With every hoofbeat I could hear her singing
E A
Please don't leave me all alone -
E B E
“Mi amor, mi corazon”
[Verse 5]
E A
Never seen her since that night,
E F# B
I can’t cross the line, you know.
E A
She was Mexican and I was White;
E B E
Like as not it’s better so.
A B A E
Yet I’ve always sort of missed her
E C#m F# B
Since that very last night I kissed her,
E A
I broke her heart but lost my own -
E B E
“Adios, mi corazon!”
