Mixed Race Couple

By Curtis
Verse 1:

E A
We're a mixed race couple, that's just how it goes.
E B
She likes her chili spicy, I like my mashed potatoes
C#minor A
I grew up on Springsteen, and rodeos.
E B
she danced to Selena, in her Sunday clothes.
A-B-E

Chorus:

A E
I'm from Texas and she's a Texacan
A B
She calls me "Gringo" but holds my hand
C#m B
I speak English, she's speaks Spanglish
A E
But love don't need to be all that planned
A E
We meet in the middle, like only we can
F#m B
Me and my Texacan
A-B-E

Verse 2:

She prays in Spanish, I curse in twang

She's got her abuela's old wedding ring.

I bring the brisket, she brings the pan dulce

We don't match perfect, but we fit just the same.

Chorus:

I'm from Texas and she's a Texacan

She still calls me "Gringo" but I understand

I speak English, she speaks Spanglish

But love don't need to be all that planned

And we build our world hand in hand

Love ain't perfect-it's better than planned

Me and my Texacan.

Bridge:

F#m A
Some folks stare, some folks smile
E B
We just walk on, mile by mile
C#m A
Different roots but the same old song
B E
A little bit right, where the world feels wrong.

Outro:

E A
So here we are, hand in hand
B E
Two hearts across the Rio Grande
A E
No need to change, no master plan
A E
Just me and my Texacan.
