Example:

     Y si [C]Adelita se [G7]fuera con [C]otro[:]Y si a caso yo muero en la guerra

     la segui[F]ría por tierra y por [G]mar[:]Y si en la sierra me van a sepultar

     si por mar en un buque de [C]guerra[:]Adelita, por Dios te lo ruego

     si por [G7]tierra en un tren mili[C]tar.[:]Que no vayas por mi a llorar.

 

        Y si Ade[G7]lita quisiera ser mi es[C]posa

        y si Ade[G7]lita fuera mi mu[C]jer

        le compraría un ves[C7]tido de [F]seda

        para lle[C]var la a bai[G7]lar al cuar[C]tel.
