Intro: Am

          Dm
Maria Maria 
                              Am
She reminds me of a west side story 
		      Em
Growing up in Spanish Harlem 
				  Am
She's living the life just like a movie star 

          Dm
Maria Maria 
                           Am
She fell in love in East L.A. 
		      Em
To the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah 
                      Am
Played by Carlos Santana 

         Am
Stop the looting, stop the shooting 
     G
Pick pocking on the corner 
	   F
See as the rich is getting richer 
    G               E/G#
The poor is getting poorer 

          Am
Se Mira Maria on the corner 
	    G
Thinking of ways to make it better 
      F
In my mailbox there's an eviction letter 
G		   E/G#
Somebody just said see you later

Am
Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola 

Ahora vengo mama chola 

Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola 

Ahora vengo mama chola x8 

CHORUS
	       Am
I said a la favella los colores
    G
The streets are getting hotter 
	    F
There is no water to put out the fire 
E
Mi canto la esperanza 

   E/G#    Am
Se Mira Maria on the corner 
	    G
Thinking of ways to make it better 
       F
Then I looked up in the sky 
          E
Hoping of days of paradise 

Am
Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola 

Ahora vengo mama chola x8

BRIDGE:

Am                            G
     Maria you know you're my lover 
F			       E
     When the wind blows I can feel you 
            Am				G
Through the weather and even when we're apart 
F       		 E
I still feel like we're together
