(Repeated over and over again)

[Verse 1]

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.

[Chorus 1]

D G A D G A

Pardon me if I stop and ask you why,

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,

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

About a young cowboy and a Mexican girl,

And how they fell in love.

Someone like you could love someone like me.
