Maria Maria - Santana | Guitar Chords

[Intro]
---------------------
Am
Ladies and gents
Turn up this sound system
To the sound of Carlos Santana
And the GMBs
Ghetto blues from the refugee camp
             Dm
Oh Maria Maria 

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
                              Am
She reminds me of a west side story
                         Em
Growing up in Spanish Harlem
E7                                  Am
  She's living the life just like a movie star
             Dm
Oh Maria Maria 
                           Am
She fell in love in East L.A 
                            Em
To the sounds of the guitar,  yeah, yeah
E7                      Am
  Played by Carlos Santana

[Verse 1]
---------------------
             Am
Stop the looting, stop the shooting
         G
Pick pocking on the corner
               F
See as the rich is getting richer
        Em               E7
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
Em                          E7
Signed by the judge said see  you later

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
 Am
Ahora vengo mama chula mama chula
Ahora vengo mama chula (East Coast)
Ahora vengo mama chula mama chula
Ahora vengo mama chula (West Coast)
        Dm
Maria Maria

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
                         Am
She reminds me of a west side story
                     Em
Growing up in Spanish  Harlem
E7                                  Am
  She's living the life just like a movie star
             Dm
Oh Maria Maria 
                           Am
She fell in love in East L.A 
                            Em

[Interlude]
---------------------
                 Am
I said a la favella los colores

[Verse 2]
---------------------
           G
The streets are getting hotter
              F
There is no water to put out the fire
       Em          E7
Ni gota  de esperanza
            Am
Se mira Maria on the corner
                G
Thinking of ways to make it better
             F
Then I looked up in the sky
              Em           E7
Hoping of days  of paradise

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Am
Ahora vengo mama chula mama chula
Ahora vengo mama chula (North side)
Ahora vengo mama chula mama chula
Ahora vengo mama chula (South side)
Ahora vengo mama chula mama chula
Ahora vengo mama chula (worldwide)
Ahora vengo mama chula mama chula
Ahora vengo mama chula (open up your eyes)

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Am                         G
  Maria you know you're my lover
F                          Em      E7
 When the wind blows I can feel you
               Am                        G
Through the weather and even when we're apart
F                        Em
 It feels like we're together
  E7  Dm
Maria,  yeah

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
                              Am
She reminds me of a west side story

Growing up in Spanish Harlem
E7                                  Am
  She's living the life just like a movie star
             Dm
Oh Maria Maria 
                        Am
She fell in love in East  L.A
