San Antonio Stroll chords by Tanya Tucker

C                          D7
When I was a child down in South Caroline

           F        G7          C
Soon's the Saturday sun went on down

                                          D7
My folks and sister would go and leave me home all alone

                  G7              C
Going to that big square dance in town


        Am                        Em
Well my old radio would play that old opry show

     F         G7          C
So I never got lonesome or blue

          Am                              Em
I'd fall asleep in my chair and dream that I was right there

     D7                      G7
Just singing the whole night through


        C
When my folks would come home

          D7
They'd be humming a song

       F             G7              Am
Mama'd smile and say child don't you know

              F
There ain't a thing in this world to make you

C                 Am        D7     G7   C
Fall in love girl  like the San Antonio Stroll


                                  D7
Well the day finally come when my mama said hun

           F             G7         C
It's 'bout time you came with us as well

                           D7
Well I had me a time yes I danced all the night

                         G7              C
Till they rang that old cracked midnight bell


         Am
Then the lights went down low

            Em
The fiddler picked up his bow

       F                  G7        C
And he played something stately and slow

       Am                   Em
And my sister Irene and her husband to be


          D7                 G7
They held hands and began to stroll

           C                      D7
I've been away for a while but it still brings a smile

       F            G7          Am
When I think of the way that it goes

         F                         C        A7
Now I'll sing it to you just so we both can do

         D7      G7  C
That old San Antonio Stroll


         F                         C        A7
Now I'll sing it to you just so we both can do

         D7     G7   C
