Maria was asleep when I kissed her goodbye

A man without hope is a man who turns bad

Somebody came and took the heart of my people away

Now I ain't worried, baby, hear what I say

My people gonna rise again fightin' someday

A~ A D A E

D            A
I saw Texas, she looked so fine
E                            A
I met some other people same story as mine
D                      A                        E A E
Laughin' and drinkin' waitin' for the sun to go down
D                               A              
We had life in our eyes as we crossed the border line
F#m                          D
Shot six good men without tellin' them why
D                                 A             E A E A
How could anybody take the only thing a man has left

A                    F#m
Wipe away your tears Maria
D                     F#m         E
There's a better life for us somewhere
A                     F#m
Let me see you smile Maria
D                        F#m      E
Close your eyes, we're on our way there
