 Subject: TAB: La Bamba by Richie Valens
 I have a screwed up version of this under "traditional mexican folk songs" (I think).  Could you remove that entirely (it was mine) and/or replace it with this?  This is corrected.
 
                                  LA BAMBA
                                  ~~~~~~~~
 
 Traditional Mexican folk song, as done by Richie Valens
 
 My English teacher taught me how to play this.  Here's my
 transcription.  One guitar plays the tab, the other plays the chords:
 
 
     C     F     G               C     F     G

 Para bailar La Bamba
 Para bailar La Bamba se necessita una poca de gracia
 Una poca de gracia y otra cosita y arriba y arriba
 Ay arriba y arriba por ti sere por ti sere por ti sere
 Yo no soy marinero soy capitan soy capitan soy capitan
 
 Bamba la Bamba
 Bamba la Bamba
 Bamba la Bamba
 Bamba la Bamba
 Ba------------
 
 I got the lyrics from what was already in OLGA!
