       C (x32010@1)                   GAnd (320003@1)I said we had a little change in plans,
           C (x32010@1)                GLike (320003@1)when Paul McCartney got busted in Japan.
       C (x32010@1)        G/B (143121@7)                Am (x02210@1)     Am7 (x02010@1)   D (xx0232@1)**
And I said we got waylaid when we set foot on Mexican soil.

You see, the borderman guard with the fumanchu mustache
        G(1)                                   D(1)

          G(1)                   C(1)              D(1)
He said "Doin' a little funny business in Mexcio, Amigo?"
     Em(1)                             D(1)
And all I could think about was savin' my own tail
         C(1)                     G(1)
When he mentioned 10 years in a Mexican jail
      C(1)       G/B(1)       Am(1)
So I pointed at John Roy and said
          Am7(1)                   D (xx0232@1)**
"It's all his...now please let me go.
