(Shel Silverstein)
Dr. Hook: Belly Up!


First Verse


F
Hey play the guitars)
F
(I love to hear the guitars play)
F
(Oh I love to sing, I love to sing)
F
She was dancing when I seen her, in a Mexican cantina
F                                   C
In a neighborhood they call La Zona Roja (hahahaha)
C
She had a child's smile, but she told me, in a while
C                                          F
It would take a lot of gold to get to know her (Oh)


Chorus


Bb C     F       Bb    C       F
Acapulco Goldie, donde did you go
Bb  C                 F    
You said you'd always hold me
Bb                       F
But you run away with me Acapulco gold

(Oh that's a terrible thing you did)


Second Verse


F
I knew there's no–one cuter, then she said she was a puta
F                                            C
I said "What does puta mean?" Hmm and so she told me... (Oh no)
C
Then we went to meet a dealer, we smoked and drank tequila
C                                                     F
Then the lights went out and I guess that's where she rolled me (just like)


Chorus


Bb C     F       Bb      C       F
Acapulco Goldie, por que did you go?
Bb  C                 F
You said you'd always hold me
Bb                         F
But you vamos away with me Acapulco gold
Bb                        F
Yes, you run away with me Acapulco gold

(Oh Goldie)
Bb  C                     F
(How can you do these things to me?)
Bb  C                     F
(Where's my gun?)
Bb  C                     F
(Who took my gun?)
Bb  C                     F
(On no, I don't feel good)
Bb  C                     F
(I don't feel good man)
Bb  C                     F
(Stop the guitars)
Bb  C                     F
(Stop the guitars!)
