Note: For the very last note of the solo, I would recommend that you play it on
the 5 of the low E rather than the 7 as indicated. The 7 is played on the record,
but when playing alone you can go straight into Amaj7 to finish the solo and back
into the chords and verse.
The verses following the solo are played exactly as indicated previous to the solo.
There is a difference in the end, where 'Sabor a mi' repeats, and I have indicated below.
No soy nada yo no tengo vanidad
De mi vida doy lo bueno
Yo tan pobre que otra cosa puedo dar
Pasaran mas de mil anos muchos mas
Yo no se si tenga amor la eternida
Pero alla tal como aqui
En la boca llevaras
Amaj7
sabor a mi
Dm7 Amaj7
Sabor a mi
Dm7 Amaj7
Sabor a mi
Dm7 Amaj7 (x02120@1)
Sabor a mi...
The song ends with this chord strummed once.
C#m7#5

Notes:
1. Behind the solos are just the verse chords....not the variation from verse two with the
different ending, but the progression from verse one that ends with C#m7.
This goes for both the intro solo and the middle solos.
2. The two-note, two-finger chords that accompany the main progression in verse 1 are struck
repeatedly. You can hear it on the song recording.
