It Happened In MontereyJohn BolesVerse:In my imagination I'm finding consolationSomewhere along the Rio Grande.Sadly I'm reminiscing, madly again I'm kissingSomeone along the Rio Grande.Chorus:It happened in Monterey a long time ago.I met her in Monterey in old Mexico.Stars and steel guitars and luscious lips as red as wineBroke somebody's heart and I'm afraid that it was mine.It happened in Monterey without thinking twice.I left her and threw away the Key to Paradise.My indiscreet heart longs for the sweetheartThat I left in old Monterey.(chorus repeats)Transcribed by Loren Richards
