[Intro 1]
[D][A][G][A][G][D][G]
[A][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
This old [D]Mexican cow
[A]boy at the [Bm]bar looked a [A]hundred years [D]old[A][Bm]
He had a [D]million dollar smile [F#m]and his weathered brown
[Bm]skin shimmered like [A]Cali[D]fornia [A]gold[F#m][Bm]
[A]He said I'm a lit[Em]tle short on cash,
but [A]I'm long on life
For a [Em]shot of tequila,
I'll give you some [A]dang good ad[G]vice[A]

[Verse 2]
He said [G]don't leave your [A]beer
in the [D]hot Texas sun
Don't [G]argue with a [A]woman while
she's [Bm]holdin' a gun
Never [G]cheat when it [A]comes
to love [D]or dominoes
[G]Vay[Em]a con dios said the old[A]
Vaquer[D]o
[G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]
[Asus4]Well my h[D]eart sank the more h[A]e drank,
the [Bm]more he poured out [A]his [Bm]misery[A][D][A][Bm]
How he [D]lost her after [F#m]forty- seven years [Bm]and his tears
star[A]ted [Bm]flowing [A]like t[D]he Rio G[F#m]rande[Bm]
[A]He started spe[Em]akin' in Spanish,
then he [A]kissed is rosary
Said "por [Em]siempre mi amor" his
one [A]more to her [Asus4]memory[A]

[Verse 4]
He said [G]don't live your [A]life
like [D]a sad country song
A [G]fool on [A]a stool is still [Bm]a fool
right or wrong
[G][?] San Ben[A]ito breaking
[D]hearts as [G]he goes
[Em]Vaya con dios said the [A]old Vaquer[D]o
[A]I walked

[Verse 5]
[Bm]over to the corner,
turned the [F#m]old jukebox on
When I [G]turned back around,
like [Gm]a ghost he was gone

[Verse 6]
So [D]I paid his tab, c[F#m]alled a c[A]ab, c[Bm]alled it a night,
and came straight [D]home [F#m]to you[Bm]
As we [D]laid there in bed,
I told [A]you all the thing[Bm]s he said
[A]we laughed, we [Bm]cried,
[A]and [D]I held you the whole night [F#m]through[A][Bm][A]

[Verse 7]
You know I [Em]think of him often,
out [A]there all alone
[Em]Maybe he was an angel,
[A]or just an old man fro[D]m San Ant[A]one

[Verse 8]
He said [G]don't leave your [A]beer
in [D]the hot Texas sun
Don't [G]argue with a [A]woman while
she's [Bm]holdin' a gun
Never [G]cheat when [A]it comes
to love [D]or [A]dom[D]in [G]oes
[Em]Vaya con di[A]os
He said [G]don't live your [A]life
like [D]a sad country song
A [G]fool on [A]a stool is still [Bm]a fool
right or wrong
[G][?] San Ben[A]ito breaking
[D]hearts [A]as [D]he goes[G]
[Em]Vaya con di[A]os
He said [Em]vaya con dios
[A]

[Verse 9]
This old [D]Mexican [F#m]cow bo[A]y at the ba[Bm]r looked
a [A]hundred years [D]old[F#m][A][F#m][Bm][A][D]
[A]He had a [D]million dollar smile [F#m]and his weathered
brown [Bm]skin shimmered like [A]California gold
