Caroline Herring - Abuelita
CAPO: 5th Fret
INTRO: C Cadd9 C Cadd9
C Em F C
I should have known why I loved
Cadd9 Em
Driving through the cactus fields
F G
Or wearing white leather gloves
E E7 Am
Admiring the virgin
F G
As she stands upon the moon
C Cadd9 Em
Waltzing behind a second line
F G
Or harmonizing the gospel tunes
CHORUS:
C Em F C
Abuelita, underneath the trees
Cadd9 Em F C
Of Costa Rica and her dark shored seas
Em7
They won't tell me about you
F G
They don't want me to see
C Em F G C
Abuelita, you're just like me
Em F C
I do not have your mind
Cadd9 Em
Nor your body
F G
Nor your circumstance in time
E E7 Am
But I feel something rising
F G
Up through me like a song
C Cadd9 Em
It's fragile and lovely
F G
It's powerful and strong
CHORUS:
C Em F C
Abuelita, underneath the trees
Cadd9 Em F C
Of Costa Rica and her dark shored seas
Em7
They won't tell me about you
F G
They don't want me to see
