Artist/Band: Harris Emmylou Tabs
Song: Spanish Dancer Tab
Emmylou Harris, Rodney Crowell, and Patti Scialfa
A Oh mama there's E this Spanish dancer
D Whose steps I follow when E he comes near
A The red dress E of temptation
D Over a long black E slip of fear
Fm Will I fall beneath the D shadow
Of some broken cross Fm
My arms D emptied and all my treasures A E lost
D Still like that E Spanish dancer
A I throw my roses E down for D him
D Across these E beds of darkness
A He opens his arms and E gathers them D in
Oh mama the bridges were burning
Over a river black and cold
But I walked when love commanded me
Up to the edges of his soul
But I'm still frightened of that dark divide
Will I gain entrance or be denied
Still like that Spanish dancer
I throw my roses down for him
Across these beds of darkness
He opens his arms and gathers them in
Oh mama when you were a young girl
Did you ever love a man so much
As if he were some fantastic jewel
That you should never be worthy of
But all those illusions strip and fall
And he is just a man after all
And just like that Spanish dancer
I throw my roses down for him
Across these beds of darkness
He opens his arms and gathers them in
X2
Just like that Spanish dancer I
Just like that Spanish dancer I
Just like that Spanish dancer I
Just like that Spanish dancer I
Just like that Spanish dancer I
Just like that Spanish dancer I
