South Of The Border
Recorded by Patsy Cline
Written by Michael Carr and Jimmy Kennedy
G+G D7D7 G+G
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ay
D7D7 G+G
South of the border down Mexico way
D7D7
That's where they fell in love when stars above came out to play
G+G C majorC
And now as they wander their thoughts ever stray
G+G D7D7 G+G
South of the border down Mexico way
D7D7 G+G
She was a picture in old Spanish lace
D7D7
Just for a tender while he kissed the smile upon her face
G+G C majorC
For it was Fiesta and they were so gay
G+G D7D7 G+G
South of the border down Mexico way
A minorAm
Then she sighed as she whispered mananna
D7D7 G+G
Never dreaming that they were parting
E7E7 A minorAm
And he lied as he whispered mananna
G+G D7D7 G+G
For that tomorrow never came
D7D7 G+G
South of the border he rode back one day
D7D7
There in a veil of white by candlelight she knelt to pray
G+G C majorC
The mission bells told him that he mustn't stay
G+G D7D7 G+G
South of the border down Mexico way
D7D7 G+G D7D7 G+G
