Verse:

E			      A
Here comes another song about Mexico
	     C#m
I just can't help myself
		   B
I lost my old lady

Got my lures, got my bobbers, now I'm gonna go
E
Got off in the wrong direction
A
Found a hooker and lost my erection
     C#m 				       B
So I had to lie in the letter to the boys back home


Chorus:

	 A
Well the good guys and the bad guys
		E		      B
Well they never work past noon around here
	 A					F#m
They sit side to side in cantinas, talk to senoritas
	       E
And drink warm beer


(Riff 1)


Second verse:

E				    A
Here comes the same old verse about Mexico
	      C#m
We just can't help ourselves
		       B
We lost our old ladies

Got our lures, got our bobbers, now we're gonna go
E
Got off in the wrong direction
A
Found some hookers and lost our erections
      C#m					B
So we had to lie in the letter to the boys back home


Chorus:

	 A
Well the good guys and the bad guys
		E		      B
Well they never work past noon around here
	 A				       F#m
They sit side to side in Cantinas, talk to senoritas
	       E
And drink warm beer

(Riff 1)

Solo:

Haven't figured it out yet, but here are the chords:
E-A-E-A-C#m-A-B-E

Chorus:

	 A
Yeah the good guys and the bad guys
		E		      B
Well they never work past noon around here
	 A				       F#m
They sit side to side in Cantinas, talk to senoritas
	       E
And drink warm beer

(repeat)
