Intro: D, A, D, A, G+G

Verse One:
      D MajorD  A augmentedA  G+G
You were an old   friend
   B minorBm      G+G
The kind I could confide in
   D MajorD  A augmentedA  G+G    B minorBm         G+G
And drink  with on random neighbour's porch steps
   B minorBm         G+G        A augmentedA    G+G
Our glossy eyes painted portraits of the streets

Repeat Intro


Verse Two:
      D MajorD  A augmentedA  G+G
You were an old  friend
   B minorBm       G+G
That covered up your innocence
   D MajorD  A augmentedA  G+G          B minorBm         G+G
With five   tattoos of all the bands you loved in high school
   B minorBm         G+G       A augmentedA   G+G
The ones you said that I had to listen to   all the time


Verse Three:
D MajorD            G+G     D MajorD
I did what I did to get away from this
    B minorBm         G+G       D MajorD
Cause everything that's happened has left me a total wreck
      D MajorD           G+G    D MajorD
And everything that I do now is meaningless
    B minorBm       G+G      D MajorD
So I'm off to wander around the world for a little bit
      F# minorF#m                 G+G
Without one hundred channels with nothing on the TV
      F# minorF#m       G+G   A augmentedA
And the great pessimistic unknown

Chorus:
     G+G          D MajorD
So does anyone know the best way to go?
    A augmentedA                B minorBm
Which road that I could take to get to Mexico?
    G+G           D MajorD
Cause I'm so sick of living in this ditch
    A augmentedA          B minorBm
With only the memory in the back of my head


Outro:
     G+G           B minorBm
I'm on cruise control and the radio was on
      G+G
Yeah, they were playing that song
               B minorBm
That we both learned on our Mexican guitars
     G+G           B minorBm
I'm on cruise control and the radio was on
      G+G
They were playing that song
                   B minorBm
That we both learned on our Mexican guitars
     G+G            B minorBm
On our Mexican guitars, on our Mexican guitars
     G+G            B minorBm
On our Mexican guitars, on our Mexican guitars
       G+G  F# minorF#m
