Verse 1:
    Em                    G
The sun was going down behind a tattooed tree
         Em                               G
And the simple act of an oar's stroke put diamonds in the sea
    Em                             C/G             Em
And all because of the phosphorus there in quantity
     C/G             Em
As I dug you diggin' me in Mexico

There in the valley of Scorpio, beneath the cross of jade
  Em                              G
Smoking on the seashell pipe the gypsies had made

We sat and we dreamed a while of smugglers bringing wine

In that crystal thought time in Mexico

Sitting in a chair of bamboo, sipping grenadine
   Em                      G
Straining my eyes for a surfacing submarine

I'm a-shakin' in my seat in Mexico

Grasshoppers creaking in the velvet jungle night
 Em                         G
Microscopic circles in the fluid of my sight
 Em                               C/G                Em
Watching a black-eyed native girl cut and trim the lamp
 C/G        Em
Valentino vamp in Mexico
