[INTRO]:   G   C   D7   G

            C                   G
We went one day, about a month ago
                 D7         G
To have a little fun in Mexico
         C                 G
We ended up, in a gambling spot
                 D7     D7?
Where the liquor flowed     and the dice were hot

            C                   G
So, here we are, in the Tijuana Jail
             D7                 G
Ain't got no friends, to go our bail
               C                     G
So, here we'll stay, ?cause we can't pay
              D7   D7?                G
Just send our mail     to the Tijuana Jail

               C                   G
I was shootin' dice, rakin' in the dough
           D7               G
And then I heard, a whistle blow
              C                  G
We started to run, when a man in blue
                   D7      D7?
Said, ?Señor, come with me,   ?cause I want you?

            C                   G
So, here we are, in the Tijuana Jail
             D7                 G
Ain't got no friends, to go our bail
               C                     G
So, here we'll stay, ?cause we can't pay
              D7   D7?                G
Just send our mail     to the Tijuana Jail

                  C                           G
Just five hundred dollars, and they'll set us free
                   D7                       G
I couldn't raise a penny, if you threatened me
            C                         G
I know five hundred, don't sound like much
                D     D7?
But just try to find,    somebody to touch

            C                   G
So, here we are, in the Tijuana Jail
             D7                 G
Ain't got no friends, to go our bail
               C                     G
So, here we'll stay, ?cause we can't pay
              D7   D7?                G
Just send our mail     to the Tijuana Jail

            C                   G
So, here we are, in the Tijuana Jail
             D7                 G
Ain't got no friends, to go our bail
               C                     G
So, here we'll stay, ?cause we can't pay
              D7   D7?                G
Just send our mail     to the Tijuana Jail
