Verse 1:
        D MajorD        G+G   C majorC     D MajorD
     For a change I headed south across the border
         G+G      C majorC     G+G    D MajorD
     For the pesos and a different horse to ride
         D MajorD        G+G  C majorC  D MajorD
     I'd be back to make the rodeo in Waco
            G+G                A augmentedA
     But that was long before I saw them dark brown eyes


Verse 2:
         D MajorD          G+G    C majorC    D MajorD
     Oh her long black hair and English bad and broken
       G+G       C majorC   G+G      D MajorD
     Her body said the words she couldn't find
        D MajorD      G+G    C majorC    D MajorD
     As I hung on every word she left unspoken
         G+G               A augmentedA
     Oh the question started leaning on my mind

Chorus:
       D MajorD G+G   D MajorD
     Rodeo ooo or Mexico
        C majorC        G+G      A augmentedA
     They both can keep a cowboy satisfied
       D MajorD G+G   D MajorD
     Rodeo ooo or Mexico
        C majorC     G+G      A augmentedA
     The only way I know how to decide
                 D MajorD
     Is just get on and ride

      D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA A majorA


Verse 3:

       D MajorD         G+G      C majorC    D MajorD
     We danced all night beneath that sheet of cotton
          G+G         C majorC     G+G    D MajorD
     And you just don't tell a girl like that goodbye
         D MajorD         G+G  C majorC   D MajorD
     But the cowboy life ain't easily forgotten
         G+G                   A augmentedA
     Though lying there I couldn' help but wonder why

Chorus:

       D MajorD G+G   D MajorD
     Rodeo ooo or Mexico
        C majorC        G+G      A augmentedA
     They both can keep a cowboy satisfied
       D MajorD G+G   D MajorD
     Rodeo ooo or Mexico
        C majorC     G+G      A augmentedA
     The only way I know how to decide
                 D MajorD
     Is just get on and ride

      D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA A majorA

      D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA A majorA Let me only ride
      D MajorD G+G B minorBm A augmentedA A majorA Let's ride

Verse 4:
          D MajorD         G+G   C majorC    D MajorD
     Well the morning found the answer dawning on me
        G+G       C majorC   G+G    D MajorD
     As I woke up to the sharp end of a knife
           D MajorD        G+G   C majorC    D MajorD
     Well he was screaming at the woman hanging on me
         G+G               A augmentedA
     Does anybody know the Spanish word for wife?


Chorus:
       D MajorD G+G   D MajorD
     Rodeo ooo or Mexico
        C majorC        G+G      A augmentedA
     They both can keep a cowboy satisfied

     Is just get on and ride
