Don Williams – Senorita (Guitar)

D    G A D    G A D
(Repeated over and over again)

D                        G A
  Back in the innocent days,

D                                      G            A
  There was a young Cowboy who was in love with a Mexican girl,

D    G      A                D    G A
      Only she didn’t know it,

     D                                  G  A                           D                G A
And he would watch her as she walked by,   In the cotton dress which danced in the wind,

         D                   G A
And her eyes held the stars,

D                        G                    A               D    G A
  Now she was the most beautiful thing that cowboy had ever seen,

             D                  G A
Sent down straight from heaven,

     D                    G                A
But he was afraid, he'd never win her heart,

D                                G              A
  Because of some family scars left by the range wars

D         G       A
  But oh how he loved her.

     D     G   A      D      G A
Senorita,     Passing by,

  D             G        A       D     G A
Pardon me if I stop and ask you why,

     D     G   A       D     G A
Senorita,     Could it be,

  D                     G        A       D     G A
Someone like you could love someone like me.

D                        G  A             D                       G A
  So he walked up to her,  tipped his hat, and introduced himself,

D                               G                     A
  And she looked up at him and didn’t know what to say,

D           G                A           D                                     G A
  So he told her the story of his family, the trouble that brought the barbed wire,

D                                            G A
  And of all the things that he couldn't change,

D                                       G A          D                  G A
  And then he told her that he loved her,   and he studied her reaction,

D                                    G A             D      G A
  Now by the time the spring rains came, they were married,

                    D                            G A
Now there’s an old song that my family used to sing,

          D                      G      A
About a young cowboy and a Mexican girl,

D                           G A D   G A D
  And how they fell in love.

     D     G   A      D      G A

Someone like you could love someone like me.
