Jose's Cantina
Chords donated by a friend of the page.
I Ammet you in DmJose's Cantina,
Oh, Am you looked so lonesome and Esad,
So I Amsaid with a wink, "Let me Gbuy you a drink,
And Fmaybe things won't seem so Ebad."
You Amordered a Dmlarge champagne cocktail,
Then Amvodka and wine from DeErone.
AmAnd as I bought it I Gsuddenly thought,
"It's no Fwonder that you're on your Eown."
But by Amthen I had Dmfallen in love,
But you Amlaughed at the way that I Efelt,
With your Amblack cowboy boots and your Gcowgirl-type suit,
And your Fhop-along chastity Ebelt.
You Amtook me aDmcross town to your place,
My Ameagerness I could not Ehide.
As you Amwalked 'cross the floor and you Glocked the front door,
F Why did you leave me outEside?
So I Amwent to my DmUncle Henando,
Saying, "AmMy heart is filled with deEsire.
But the Amlady says no, and all the Gwaters that flow
From the Fmountains can't put out the Efire."
He Amsaid, "When a Dmlady says no,
She Amsometimes means yes, you young Ehot head."
I said, "AmThat may be so, but she Gdidn't say no,
She Fsimply said, "Go and get Eknotted."
So I Amcame here and I Dmsang 'neath your window,
From Ammidnight 'til dawn, half past Ethree.
Oh Amtell me, sweet lady, sweet Glady, pray tell me,
What Fwas it you emptied on Eme?
I Amcame here to Dmold Barcelona,
To Ampick the sweetheart of my Elife,
And I Amgave you my heart, but we Gdrifted apart,
So FI'm going Eback to the Amwife.
Olé!
