(note: Am here can have the 9th added for emphasis, to Am9,
and barre chords can be substituted for different effect...
I have not tabbed out all the barre chords above - if you can
play them, you probably know them already)

E F#m G F#m x2
E F#m
She lives in a bungalow
G F#m E
She kills me with rose garden thorns
F#m G F#m
She waits for me
E F#m
My love is unusual
G F#m E
it's painted with roses and thorns
F#m G F#m
with her I'm complete

D11 To me
E F#m G
Visions of Mexico seduce me
F#m E F#m G F#m
it goes to my head so carefully
E F#m G
Memories of candles and incense
F#m E
and all of these things...
F#m G F#m
remember these?

Chorus

Bm G F#m
She comforts me when
G D
the candles blow out
C/G Bb
The cake has grown mold
Em
but the memories are sweet
Bb
The laughter's all gone
Em
but the memories are mine
Bb
The Mexican princess is
Em
out of my life
Am     D     C      D11
