Adalaida
George Strait

capo at 2nd fret makes things easier
it's pretty "strait"forward (sorry) the
way I play it....

CHORUS:
A                            E
Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
E
sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
                         A
you're every young man's dream
A                             D
Adalida, I'd walk thru a hurricane
E
to stand beside you sweet Adalida
                     A
I'd swin the Pontchartrain

A                              E
Oh no, here you comin down the road

With your cotton dress a swishin',

you gettin some attention
                          A
from all the boys in Thibodaux

A                                D
Oh my you really fillin up their eyes
E
smilin' and a winkin', I know what they're thinkin'
                                   A
but I'm the only one who loves you so!

REPEAT CHORUS

oh no, the hottest little dish I know
I know you can tell it, your makin me so jealous,
From my head down to my toes
oh me, you could make a redneck green,
the way that your a lookin', you got me cookin'
and I ain't talkin 'bout Etoufee'
