AD
Spanish is a loving tongue
ABE
Soft as music light as spray
AD
Was a girl he learned it from
AEA
Living down Sonora way
DEDA
He don't look much like a lover
AF#mBE
But he says her love words over
AD
Mostly when he's all alone
AEA
Mi amor mi corazon
AD
On the nights that he would ride
ABE
She would listen for his spurs
AD
Throw those big doors open wide
AEA
Raise them laughing eyes of hers
DEDA
How those hours would get to flyin'
AF#mBE
All too soon he'd hear her sighing
AD
In her little sorry tone
AEA
Mi amor mi corazon
SOLO
AD
He ain't seen her since that night
ABE
He can't cross the line you know
AD
They want him for a gambling flight
AEA
Like as not it's better so
DEDA
Yet he's always sort of missed her
AF#mBE
Since that last sad night he kissed her
AD
Lost his heart left her own
AEA
Adios mi corazon
AD
Lost his heart left her own
AEA
Adios mi corazon
