Movie - Flamenco

I'm looking for some assistance. I need the chords for the Rumba in the above movie called "Yo te quiero verde" by Manzanita and Ketama. I have the letras.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks,
Bob

Try this:

Em Em E7 Am

C B(b9) Am D7 G

Chorus:

(C B7 Em) X 3

When Ketama play this, the last three chord of the verse are done as a jazz-style ii-V-I, for instance Am, D9, GMaj7 or similar. It's a while since I've heard this but these are the chords I use to accompany singers here who sing this.

I hope this is helpfull!

Many Thanks,

Our Dance Teacher likes this tune, so the first guitarist (who also sings) and me will attempt to play this for her class.

Apologies in advance for the thread necromancy

I couldn't find a "B(b9)" (assuming it's different than a Bb9 - i.e. a B-flat with a 9th), how do you play that?

Perhaps an altered dominant B13 with flattened 9th?

(bit of a stretch this one.. if you have en elongated pinky could swap the E and D string positions around...)

Haven't tried it but its position would drop next nicely down to Am..
