G              C   G              D       
I wont let you go, I wont let you go,
G               C   G           D
Not to Mississippi, Not to Tupelo,
G               C   G              D
I wont let you go, I wont let you go,
G               C    G            D
Not to Detroit city, Not to Chicago,
    C                G        D             Em
But, if your gonna leave I'm begging you to please, 
    C       G     D    G
Go all the way to Mexico
G               C      G               D
I wont let you leave, I wont let you leave
G                C       G             D
Not with all my Django, Emmylou, and Steve,
G                C     G              D
I wont let you leave, I wont let you leave,
G                C     G                 D
Not with my revival tucked down in your sleeve,
C                 G             D             Em
But if your gonna go, take the ones you gave to me
 C       G     D    G
All the way to Mexico
         C           G         D      Em
All the way to the shore, California Bay,
   C         G                   C         G           D
And I'll be fine, Cause I have taken you back for the last time,

Interlude G C G D G C G D C G D Em C G D G

G                C   G               D
I wont set you free, I wont set you free, 
G                C    G                  D
Not to say it's over, come right back to me,
C                 G      D             Em
But if your gonna go Im giving you the key

But only if you go to Mexico

All the way to the shore, California Bay,
     C       G                   C        G             D
And I'll be fine, Cause I have taken you back for the last time,
C              G   D             Em
If your gonna go, baby wont you please,
