    Senorita / Don Williams

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Listen to the originals to get into the rythm for the strumming pattern.

    Hint:After the first D, strike G once and immediately switch to A. Chord A is strum down twice and the D is strum first (feebly ..touchin only the 1st string) upwards and then prominantly downwards.

    During any 'dialogue' part in the song D G A D are played in the background with the strumming pattern hinted above.

    D G A D
    Back in the innocent days, there was a young cowboy,

    G A D
    in love with a Mexican girl.

    G A D
    Only...she didn't know it.

    G A D
    And he would watch her, as she walked by.

    G A D
    And her cotton dress, would dance in the wind.

    G A D

    And her eyes held the stars.

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

    G A D

    Sent down straight from heaven.

    G A D

    But he was afraid, he'd never win her heart.

    G A D

    Because of some family scars, left by the range wars.

    G A D

    But oh...how he loved her.

    Chorus:

    D G A
    Senorita..
    D
    Passing by...

    G A D (//start the next line ..Pardon me.. with this D)
    G A D
    Pardon me if I stop and asked you why. G A D

    D G A
    Senorita...
    G A D
    Could it be...
    G A D
    Someone like you could love

    G A D
    Someone like me

    G A D

    So he walked up to her, tipped his hat and introduced himself.

    G A D
    And she looked up at him, and didn't know what to say.
    G A D
    So he told her the story of his family.

    G A D

    The trouble that brought the barbed wire.

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

    G A D

    And then he told her that he loved her.
    And he studied her reaction.

    G A D

    And by the time the spring rains came, they were married.

    G A D

    Now there's an ol' song that my family used to sing.
    'bout a young cowboy and a Mexican girl. G A D
    And how they fell in love. (fade G A D ..)
