   Oh, Maria Maria, she reminds me of a west side story,
                           G
    growing up in Spanish Harlem,
E                                      Am
    she's living the life just like a movie star.
                 Dm                            Am
    Oh,  Maria Maria, she fell in love in East L.A.
                             G
    to the sounds of the guitar, yeah, yeah, 
E                        Am       Am     
    played by Carlos Santana.
              Am                              G              Am
1. Stop the looting, stop the shooting, pick pocking on the corner
                F                           G
    see as the rich is getting richer, the poor is getting poorer.
                Am                               G
    Se mira, Maria, on the corner, thinking of ways to make it better
            F
    in my mailbox there's an eviction letter,
      G                                   Am
    somebody just said, 'See you later', hey!
                   Am
    ( Spoken : ) Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola,
    ahora vengo mama chola. ( 2 x )      + REFRAIN
                  Am                       G                 Am
2. I said a la favella los colores, the streets are getting hotter,
                 F                             G            Am
    there is no water to put out the fire, mi canto la esperanza.
                Am                               G                       
    Se mira, Maria, on the corner, thinking of ways to make it better,
            F                               G               Am
    then I looked up in the sky, hoping of days of paradi...se.

      Am
    Ahora vengo mama chola mama chola,
    ahora vengo mama chola. (4x)
Am                                G
    Maria, you know,  you're my lover,
F                              Em
    when the wind blows I can feel you.
                 Am                          G
    Through the weather and even when we're apart,
F                          E
    it feels like we're together.       + REFRAIN   +
