MEXICO

James Taylor

  Resus4   Re              La         Sol

Way down here        you need a reason to move

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

Feel a fool       running your stateside games

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

Lose your load,    leave your mind behind, Baby James 

 

Re Mi  Si  La

Oh, Mexico 

     Do#m     Si       La          Mi

It sounds so simple I just got to go 

    Do#m       Si       La          Do#m

The sun's so hot I forgot to go home 

Mim7         La     MI

Guess I'll have to go now

 

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

"Americano" got the sleepy eye

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

But his body's still shaking like a live wire

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

Sleepy "Se¤orita" with the eyes on fire

 

Re Mi  Si  La

Oh, Mexico

     Do#m     Si       La          Mi

It sounds so sweet with the sun sinking low

    Do#m       Si       La          Do#m

Moon's so bright like to light up the night

Make everything all right

 

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

Baby's hungry and the money's all gone

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone

         Resus4   Re              La         Sol

She gets a long letter, sends back a postcard; times are hard

 

Re Mi  Si  La

Oh, down in Mexico 

    Do#m       Si       La          Do#m

I never really been so I don't really know 

Re Mi  Si  La

Oh, Mexico 

    Do#m       Si       La          Do#m

I guess I'll have to go 

 

Re Mi  Si  La

Oh, Mexico 

    Do#m       Si       La          Do#m

I never really been but I'd sure like to go 

Re Mi  Si  La

Oh, Mexico 

    Do#m       Si       La          Do#m

I guess I'll have to go now
