I hear mariachi static on the radio,
B7B7
and the tubes they glow in the dark.
And I'm there with her in Ensenada,
E MajorE
when I'm here in Echo Park
E MajorE A augmentedA
Carmelita, hold me tighter,
E MajorE A augmentedA
I think I'm sinking down.
E MajorE B7B7
And I'm all strung out on heroin,
E MajorE
on the outskirts of town.
E MajorE
Well I'm sitting here playing solitaire,
B7B7
with my pearl handled deck.
The county won't give me no more methadone,
E MajorE
and they cut off your welfare check.
E MajorE A augmentedA
Carmelita, hold me tighter,
E MajorE A augmentedA
I think I'm sinking down.
E MajorE B7B7
And I'm all strung out on heroin,
E MajorE
on the outskirts of town.
E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE

Well I pawned my Smith Corona,
B7B7
and I went to meet my man.
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street,
E MajorE
by the Pioneer Chicken Stand.
E MajorE A augmentedA
Carmelita, hold me tighter,
E MajorE A augmentedA
I think I'm sinking down.
E MajorE B7B7
And I'm all strung out on heroin,
E MajorE
on the outskirts of town.
E MajorE A augmentedA
Carmelita, hold me tighter,
E MajorE A augmentedA
I think I'm sinking down.
E MajorE B7B7
And I'm all strung out on heroin,
E MajorE
on the outskirts of town.
