A minorAm
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico x2
E minorEm
Wake up Angelita, your mama just turned off the light
Manolo is already waiting by the old water-pipe
Her shoes in one hand she carefully walks down the stairs
Holding her breath 'cause there's danger and love in the air.
A minorAm
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
G+G
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Fm#
Your papa will beat him if he ever finds out
E minorEm
Begging the Virgin won't help
E minorEm
when you'll hear Manolito shout, (Manolito shout)
A minorAm
He's already standing under the starlit sky
A minorAm
You run to his arms and you laugh and you cry as he holds you tight
DmDm
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico x2 instrum…..
A minorAm
He says he'll be leaving you soon still you beg him to stay
But he wants to make it somewhere in the U.S.A.
And though he'll be far he promises he'll write every day
When time will be right he'll come back and he'll take you away
A minorAm
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
G+G
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico
Fm#
Your papa don't like him, he says he's no good
E minorEm
He steals and he fights and he never bahaves,
E minorEm
like a young man should, (like a young man should)
E minorEm
Angelita she knows, he's not bad inside
E minorEm
She takes the medal, she wears on a chain,
E minorEm
and presses it into his palm (he'll come back and he'll take you)
A minorAm
Aie aie aie aie aie aie Puerto Rico ..............
