Michael Martin Murphey - Spanish Is The Loving Tongue Chords

[Verse 1]
G        Bm     C            Am
 Spanish is the lovin' tongue
G        Em         Am        D7/F#
 Soft as springtime, light as spray
G            Bm     C              Am
 There was a girl I learned it from
G       Em     D7/F# G
 Living down Sonora  way
    Em      D7/F#      C     G
Now I don't look much like a lover
Em         Am                 D/F#
 Yet I say  her love words over
G        Bm             C       Am
 Late at night when I'm all alone
G     Em      D7/F# G
 "Mi amor, mi co__razon"
 
[Verse 2]
G           Bm          C         Am
 There were nights when I would ride
G          Em     Am      D7/F#
 She would listen  for my spurs
G           Bm       C       Am
 Fling that big door open wide
G            Em       D7/F#   G
 Raise those laughing eyes of hers
    Em        D7/F#       C      G
And how those hours would get to flyin'
Em            Am            D7/F#
 Pretty soon,  I'd hear her cryin'
G              Bm       C       Am
 "Please don't leave me all alone
G    Em      D7/F# G
 Mi amor, mi co__razon"
 
[Verse 3]
G         Bm      C        Am
 Then one night I had to fly
G        Em           Am        D7/F#
 I got into a foolish  gamblin' fight
G         Bm     C           Am
 I had to say  a swift goodbye
G        Em     D7/F#   G
 In that black  unlucky night
    Em        D7/F#      C          G
And traveling north, her words kept ringing
Em              Am                 D7/F#
 And every word   I could hear her singing
G              Bm       C       Am
 "Please don't leave me all alone
G    Em      D7/F# G
 Mi amor, mi cor__azon"
 
[Verse 4]
G     Bm                                C     Am
 Well, I ain't never seen her since that night
G        Em        Am         D7/F#
 I can't cross the line no more
G        Bm           C         Am
 She was Mexican, and I was White
G        Em    D7/F#        G
 Like as not,   it's better so
    Em       D7/F#   C        G
And yet I've always   sort of missed her
Em                 Am      D7/F#
 Since that night___that I kissed her
G           Bm           C         Am
 I left her heart, but I lost my own
G   Em     D7/F# G
 Adios, mi cor__azon"
