         G5     D5             A5         G5
Way down here     you need a reason to move
          G5     D5             A5         G5
Feel a fool     running your stateside games
           G5     D5          A5         G5
Lose your load,   leave your mind behind, 

Baby James 
E5   C#5  B5  A5
Oh,      Mexico 
   E5         C#5       B5          A5
It sounds so simple I just got to go 
    E5        C#5      B5          A5
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home 
G5          D5      E5
Guess I'll have to go now
  G5      D5         A5        G5
"Americano" got the sleepy eye
  G5          D5            A5              G5
But his body's still shaking like a live wire
       G5       D5          A5         G5
Sleepy "Senorita" with the eyes on fire
E5 C#5  B5  A5
Oh,   Mexico
       E5         C#5        B5           A5
It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low
     E5        C#5           B5          A5
Moon's so bright like to light up the night
 G5          D5      E5
Make everything all right
    G5       D5         A5        G5
Baby's hungry and the money's all gone
        G5      D5           A5                   G5
The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone
             G5      D5             A5        G5
She gets a long letter, sends back a postcard; times are hard
E5  C#5  B5        A5
Oh,    down in Mexico 
     E5         C#5        B5           A5
I never really been so I don't really know
E5  C#5 B5  A5
Oh,   Mexico 
   G5          D5      E5
I guess I'll have to go now
E5  C#5 B5  A5
Oh,    Mexico 
     E5         C#5        B5              A5
I never really been but I'd sure like to go 
E5  C#5 B5  A5
Oh,     Mexico 
   G5         D5      E5
I guess I'll have to go now
