Most of it is pretty straight forward but there are a few tricky bits I am not too sure about. Thank you all very much. |

IN THE VALLEY OF THE RIO GRANDE (as sung by Marty Robbins) In the valley of the Rio Grande Is a brown eyed Mexican madien I want to see In the valley of the Rio Grande In a garden of roses she said she'd wait for me To the valley of the Rio Grande I know I must go 'cause my heart tells me go again If I stay any longer she may find another to love her So tonight I must ride for the valley of the Rio Grande I can see the candle in her window Every night she said would brightly burn I've been travelin' anywhere the wind blows But my heart tells me I must return To the valley of the Rio Grande As I ride I will pray that she waits every day for me Have I been gone too long Will she still be there where I left her In the garden that lies in the valley of the Rio Grande |
