Aaron Watson

Vaquero

by Aaron Watson
Aaron Watson

Biography:

As one of Texas’s hottest young touring acts, Aaron Watson has earned his musical stripes the hard way; on the road, traveling thousands of miles to hundreds of honky-tonks across the Southwest and beyond. And for this rising star, the payoff could not have been sweeter than one magical night this past February when he stepped on stage at the legendary Texas Hall of Fame in Bryan, TX, where so many heavyweights had stood before him, to record his latest release.

[Verse 1]
C CM9/B Am7
This old Mexican cowboy at the bar
G C CM9/B Am7
Looked a hundred years old
C
He had a million dollar smile
CM9/B Am7 G C CM9/B Am7 G
And his withered brown skin shimmered like California gold
Dm G
He said, "I'm a little short on cash, but I'm long on life"
Dm G
"For a shot of tequila, I'll give you some dang good advice"


[Chorus 1]
F G C
He said, "Don't leave your beer in the hot Texas sun"
F G Am
"Don't argue with a woman while she's holding a gun"
F G C F
"Never cheat when it comes to love or dominoes"
Dm G C F C F
"Vaya con dios" said the old vaquero


[Verse 2]
C
Well my heart sank
CM9/B Am7 G C CM9/B Am7
The more he drank, the more he poured out his misery
C CM9/B
How he lost her after forty seven years
Am7 G C CM9/B Am7 G
And his tears started flowing like the Rio Grand-e
Dm G
He started speaking in Spanish then he kissed his rosary
Dm G
Said "Por siempre mi amor", his one more to her memory


[Chorus 2]
F G C
He said, "Don't live you life like a sad country song"
F G Am
"A fool on a stool is still a stool, right or wrong"
F G C F
"Pride is a bandito breaking hearts as he goes"
Dm G C
"Vaya con dios" said the old vaquero


[Verse 3]
Am Em
I walked over to the corner, turned the old jukebox on
F Fm
When I turned back around like a ghost he was gone
C CM9/B Am7 G
So I paid his tab, called a cab, called it a night
C CM9/B Am7 G
And came straight home to you
C CM9/B Am7
As we laid there in bed I told you all the things he said
G C CM9/B Am7 G
We laughed, we cried, and I held you the whole night through
Dm G
You know I think of him often, out there all alone
Dm G
Maybe he was an angel, or just an old man from San Anton


[Chorus 1]
F G C
He said, "Don't leave your beer in the hot Texas sun"
F G Am
"Don't argue with a woman while she's holding a gun"
F G C F
"Never cheat when it comes to love or dominoes"
Dm G
"Vaya con dios"


[Chorus 2]
F G C
He said, "Don't live you life like a sad country song"
F G Am
"A fool on a stool is still a stool, right or wrong"
F G C F
"Pride is a bandito breaking hearts as he goes"
Dm G
"Vaya con dios"
Dm G
He said, "Vaya con dios"


[Outro]
C CM9/B Am7
This old Mexican cowboy at the bar
G C CM9/B Am7 G
Looked a hundred years old
C CM9/B
He had a million dollar smile
Am7 G C
And his withered brown skin shimmered like California gold
