G Bm C G
Farewell to the lights of Madera, I'm leaving with the wind at my back
G Bm C G
Tell all of my friends in Dos Palos, I'm gone but I'll be circling back
G Em
Now I'm crossing the Chowchilia River
G Em
By the light of a ragged moonbeam
C Cm G Em
Lord I'll miss the Rose of San Joaquin
Em G Bm C G
I'll miss the sun on the Sierra Nevadas, adobe moon on the rise
G Bm C G
Shining down on my love in Madera, shining into her dark Spanish eyes
G Em
Oh she taught me those Mexican love songs
G Em
"Volver, Volver" in my dreams
C Cm G
And I miss the Rose of San Joaquin
G Em
Caught somewhere between
C Cm G Em
The road and the Rose of San Joaquin
Em G Bm C G
Oh her black hair fell on the blanket in the tall grass we with the dew
G Bm
Making love through the night by the river
C G
Oh Magdalene how my heart cries for you
G Em
Alone on this highway of darkness
G Em
You are the light of my dreams
C Cm G
And I miss the Rose of San Joaquin
G Em
Caught somewhere between
C Cm G Em
The road and the Rose of San Joaquin
Em C Cm G
