Em doesn't sound nearly as mexican as playing E major, just play it and you can tell the difference

and you being mexican has nothing to do with your ability to play spanish guitar. especially considering you are trying to refute a progression that is the basis of much of the repitoire of spanish guitar...

la cucaracha is easy to play

also, E, C, and D(the C-shaped D chord) sound good too if you develop a rythm, the way play it it sounds like some kind of a fight song
