[Intro]
D E7 A7 D
[Verse]
D E7
I've got a little story that I want to tell
A7 D
About a senorita and the way I fell
G
Down in a city in Mexico
D A D
In a little cabaret where the lights are low
E7
She was a-dancing to a pretty tune
A7 D
Underneath the light of the silver moon
G
I was a stranger from out of town
D A D
But she took my heart away when she danced around
[Chorus]
D
Ai, yi, yi, yi,
A7 D
My heart jumped when she danced by
G
There in the patio under the stars
D A7 D
We danced to the music of the Spanish guitars
[Solo]
D E7 A7 D
D G D A D
[Verse]
D E7
I was lonely as a man can be
A7 D
When she turned around and smiled at me
G
You can imagine my great surprise
D A D
When I saw the spark of love shining in her eyes
E7
When we kissed it was the greatest thrill
A7 D
Just for the moment my heart stood still
G
I found love where the lights were low
D A7 D
With a senorita there down in Mexico
[Chorus]
D
Ai, yi, yi, yi,
A7 D
My heart jumped when she danced by
G
There in the patio under the stars
D A7 D
We kissed to the music of the Spanish guitars
[Solo]
D E7 A7 D
D G D A D
[Chorus]
D
Ai, yi, yi, yi,
A7 D
My heart jumped when she danced by
G
There in the patio under the stars
D A7 D
We kissed to the music of the Spanish guitars
[Outro]
D
Ai, yi, yi, yi,
A7 D
My heart jumped when she danced by
