Down by the Mission, San Miguel [Bm] is a great house,
Where in dwell Don Carlos, and La Doña [F#m] María Elena [Bm] Cantrell.
I work [D] at the ranch, I saddle her mare,
I ride with the gun behind, as she visits her [F#] friends here and there.
She says, Thank you Manuel, or Manuel, por favor,
Or good evening Manuel, La Doña [F#m] María Elena [B] Cantrell.
I dream of the Mission, [F#m] San [Bm] Miguel, and it says to me,
The Mission belle, she is married Manuel,
The wife of the rancher Don Carlos Cantrell.
[D] You serve at the ranch, you hold her chair,
You carry her boxes, trunks, letters [Bm] and books here and there,
[Em] But I [Bm] hear with my heart, what she says with her eyes,
With good evening Manuel, or Manuel, por favor,
Or the carriage Manuel, or Manuel, close [F#] the door.
