Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
     D MajorD                   E MajorE
    Down the road a ways i've heard say a new day's comin' on
          A augmentedA                D MajorD
    Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone
                       E MajorE
    I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet
          BB                E MajorE
    Don't mind me,keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat


Chorus 1:
         A augmentedA               E MajorE
    Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no way to understand
                                 A augmentedA
    How that border crosswind feelin' makes a fool out of a man
                       E MajorE
    If i never felt the sunshine hell i would not curse the rain
                                  A augmentedA
    If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train


Verse 2:
     D MajorD                  E MajorE
    Me and Louie,Zig and Bobby used to chase across the yard
         A augmentedA         D MajorD
    Back in 1947 that's when more than times was hard
                         E MajorE
    Pity me i didn't find a line in time and like a fool
           BB           E MajorE
    In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool


Chorus 2:
         A augmentedA           E MajorE
    Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no comfort in the cane
                               A augmentedA
    When you're down in Madamoros gettin' busted by the man
                        E MajorE
    If i'd never felt the sunshine,hell i would not curse the rain
                                  A augmentedA
    If my feet could fit a railroad track i guess i'd been a train
