[Verse] South A-mer-i-can sto-ries_____
tell of a girl who's quite a dream,___
the beau-ty of her race. 
Though you doubt all the sto-ries_____
and think the tales are just a bit ex-treme,__
wait till you see her face.____

 [Chorus] Tan - ge - rine,___she is all they claim,___
with her eyes of night and lips as bright as flame.___

Tan - ge - rine,________when she danc-es by____
Sen´- or -i- tas  stare and ca - bal -le-ros sigh.______

And I've seen________toasts to Tan - ge - rine,________
raised in ev - 'ry bar a-cross the Ar - gen - tine.___

Yes, she has them all on the run____
but her heart be - longs to just one.
Her heart be - long to Tan - ge - rine,________
