[Verse 1]
A D A
In the High Sierras, camped were the soldiers

And a young soldada who valiantly fought
A D
Side by side with Francisco Villa
A
Adelita
[Verse 2]
D A
Far from my home now, a Texacan soldier
D
It's not for fortune or risk to the battlefield I fight
A D
I fell in love with Adelita with my very soul
A
We'll stand in arms this night
[Verse 3]
D A
She said, "Johnny, if I should die in battle
D
And my body be left in the Sierranea
A D
My love, my love, in God's name
A
Fight on, and remember me
A
That my blood will not have been spilled in vain"
[Verse 4]
D A
On horseback, a carbine full and at her side
D
Over her blouse, cartridges filled her bandoleras
A D
Side by side, into battle we rode, Villistas
A
My Adelita
