Verse 1:
         F                                     G
  Down the road a ways i've heard said a new day's coming on
                   C                               F
  Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone
                                             G
  I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet
                   D                                G
  Don't mind me just keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat

Chorus 1:
                C                            G
  There ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no way to understand
                                                               C
  How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man
                                   G
  If i'd never felt the sunshine then i would not curse the rain
                                                                   C
  If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train


Verse 2:
         F                                    G
  Me and Louise Higgins-Botham used to chase across the yard
                 C                F
  Back in 1947 that's when more than times were hard
                                                G
  Well pity me i didn't find the line in time like a fool
                     D                    G
  In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool


Chorus 2:
                  C                     G
  Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no comfort in the king
                                                             C
  When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the man
                                         G
  If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i would not curse the rain
                                                              C
  If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train
