Guitar Chords: Senorita, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara [2011]

Senorita is a beautiful Spanish song from one of the superhit movie of this year, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. I am a bit late in posting this but I hope it is useful for all of you.
First question in everybody’s mind I am sure is: “What is the strumming pattern?”
It may sound difficult but it is actually very easy. Here it is:
| 1&2& | 3&4& | 5&6& | 7&8& | | D--U | --D- | -U-U | -UDU |
The first three bars are the important ones. A DOWN stroke, an UP stroke and a DOWN stroke followed by two UP strokes. The last bar is only there to add rhythm following up to the first bar. Match it with the song to understand the timing.
There are quite a few chords in this song. Important ones are:
A: X02220 Bm: X04432 E: 022100 D: XX0232 C#: XX3121 F#m: 244222
So here goes the song:
(A) – (A) x2
(A)……………………….
¿quién eres tú? (who are you?)
(A)……………………….
¿dónde has estado? (where have you been?)
(A)……………………………….(Bm)…..
he removido cielo y tierra y no te encontré
(i’ve moved the heaven and the earth but i couldn’t find you)
(Bm)…………………………….
y llegas hoy (but you arrive today)
(Bm)……………………..
tan de repente (so suddenly)
(Bm)………………………………(A)……….
y das sentido a toda mi vida con tu querer
(and you give meaning to my whole life with your love)
Na main sam(A)jha, na main (A)jaana
Jo bhi (A)tumne mujhse kaha hai Seno(Bm)rita
Magar phir (Bm)bhi, na jaane (Bm)kyun
Mujhe (Bm)sunke accha laga hai Seno(A)rita [Stop Strumming]
……………..(E)………………..
no desvíes la mirada (don’t look away)
………………(A)…………
quédate cerca de mí (stay close to me)
Mujhko baahon mein tum (E)ghero
Samjhi na seno(A)rita
Chaahat ke (D)do pal bhi, mil (A)paaye
(C#7)Duniya mein yeh bhi kam (F#m)hai kya
Do pal ko (D)toh aao kho (A)jaaye
(C#7)Bhoole hum hota gham (F#m)hai kya (A)senorita
Su(D)no suno seno(Bm)rita kehte (A)hain (A)hum (A)kya
(A)……………………….
jamás podré (i will never)
(A)……………………….

(A)……………………………(Bm)…..
el sentado de las palabras que me dedicas
(the meaning of the word you dedicate to me)
(Bm)…………………………….
perl el calor (but the warmth)
(Bm)…………………………….
de tu mirar (of your gaze)
(Bm)…………………………….(A)……..
me hace sentir combo la más bella señorita
(makes me feel like the most beautiful)
Nighaahon (A)ne nighaahon (A)se
Kahi (A)armaano ki daastan hai seno(Bm)rita
Yeh chaahat (Bm)ki, mohabbat (Bm)ki
Saari (Bm)duniya mein ek hi zubaan hai seno(A)rita

(C#7)Bhoole hum hota gham (F#m)hai kya (A)senorita
Su(D)no suno seno(Bm)rita kehte (A)hain (A)hum (A)kya
(F#7)Jo bhi pal bee(Bm)ta

Hi Vishal,
Please go through this post: The Art of Guitar Strumming. It should help you understand how to read the notation. If you have any doubts, I will be glad to help.
I read a blog u posted about strumming, and u mentioned that we should move hand up and down but choose to miss a stroke as per the pattern. In case of a fast strumming wont that be a problem ?
No it won’t be a problem. When you skip a stroke, you don’t have to stop the motion of the hand… it should continue as usual.
