[Intro 1]
[C][Am][G][F][G][C][Am][G][F]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Please don't tell me [Am]I can't make it[G]
It [F]ain't gonna do me [G]any [C]good
And please don't offer me
your [Am]modern meth[G]ods
I'm [F]fixing to carve this [G]out of [C]wood

[Verse 2]
From [C]Nogales to [Am]Mag dalena[G]
There [F]are sixty miles of [G]sacred [C]road
And the promises made to
[Am]those who ven[G]ture
[F]San Francisco will [G]lift your
[C]load

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am][G][F][G][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]In the land of [Am]old Sonor[G]a
[F]A shallow river [G]valley [C]cries
The summer left her without [Am]forgive[G]ness
It's [F]mirrored in her chil[G]dren's [C]eyes
Prodigal sons and way
[Am]ward [G]daughters
[F]Carry [G]mandas that they might
[C]Be delivered from the
[Am]depths of dark[G]ness
And [F]born again by [G]candlelight
[C]And bor[F]n again by can[G]dlelig[C]ht
[Am][G][F][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]Blisters on my [C]feet, [G]wooden rosary
[Am]I fe[G]lt them in my pock[C]et as I ran[G]
A bullet in the [C]night
[G]A Federales'l[Am]ight
[G]San Francisco,
[C]do you understand?
[G]

[Verse 5]
Tell [C]him that I made the journey
[F]And tell him that [C]my [G]heart [C]is true
I'd [Am]like his blessing of forgiveness
be[F]fore the angels send it through

[Verse 6]
And [D]I will know that I a[Bm]m cl[A]ean now
[G]And I will dance and the [A]band will [D]play
In the old out [Bm]to cant[A]ina
Cause we'll [G]runneth over
the [A]ancient [D]clay

[Verse 7]
And [D]if I should fall to [Bm]tempta[A] tion when
[G]I return t[A]o evil t[D]hroes
From Nogales to [Bm]Mag [A]dalena
As a two [G]time beggar
[A]I will g[D]o where I[A] know
I can [Bm]be forgi[A]ven
The [G]broken heart of [A]Mex
[D]ico[Bm][A]
[G]The broken heart of [A]Mex[D]ico[Bm][A]
The [G]broken heart of [A]Mex[D]ico
