Down in Mexico

Chorus:
C majorC      G+G  FF  G+G   FF
I'm down in Mexico, had to go,
C majorC    BB    C majorC
Won't be home no more
        G+G   FF    G+G         FF
I want mom and dad to know, I miss and love them so
C majorC         G+G      C majorC
Though I'll never see them anymore.

C majorC           FF     G+G       C majorC
The day that I turned twenty one I could hardly wait
          FF        G+G         C majorC
To say goodbye to mom and dad and shake the hand of fate
         FF         G+G        C majorC
Fate was with me from the start, until that fateful day
          FF          G+G       C majorC
A augmentedA big man he took my sweetheart and I took his life away.

Chorus

I stood and watched the man as he fell
And then I heard the policemen's whistle blow
And when I thought about that prison cell
I thought about old Mexico.

Chorus
