Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Ddim]South of [G]the[C][Fm][Bb][Eb][G]
[C]border,
[Dm]down the [G]Mexico [C]way[G]
[C]That's where I fell in love
[Ebdim]when the stars above came out to pl[Dm]ay
[G]And now that I [C]wonder,
[Eaug]my thoughts ever[F] stray
South of the [C]border,
[Dm]down the [G]Mexico way
[C]She was a picture in[Dm]
old Spanish [C]lace
[Ebdim]Just for [C]a tender while
I [Ebdim]kissed the smile up[Dm]on her fa[G]ce
It was [C]fiesta, [Gm]we we[C]re s[F]o gay
South of the [C]border,[Am]
[Dm]down the [G]Mexico [C]way[G]
An[C]d she sighed as
[Dbdim]she whispered [G]manana
For [Cm]the dream[G]s that we were partin'
And I [C]lied as I whispered man[Dm]ana
[G]For tomorrow, whenever [C]can
South of the border
[A]I j[Dm]umped back one da[C]y
There in a veil of white by the [Ebdim]candlelight
[Dm]Knelt to [G]pray
The mission belt [C]told me that
[Eaug]I mustn'[E]t stay[C]
[F]South of the [C]border,
[Dm]down the [G]Mexico [C]way[Dm][G][C][Dm][G][C][Ebdim][C]
[Ebdim][Dm][G][C][F]
[C][Dm][C][Dm][G]
[C][G][C][Ebdim][Dm][G][C][G][C]
[F][C][F][C][Dm][C][G]
[C]And she sighed as she [Db]whispered manana
[G]For the dreams that we were pardoned
[C]And I lied as I whispered manana[Dm]
[G]For tomorrow never came
[C]South of the border,
[Dm]I jump back on[C]e day
There in a veil of white by the [Ebdim]candlelight,
[G]now to pray
Father Mishapouts [C]told me
that I mustn't [F]stay
South of the [C]border,
[Dm]down the Mexico [C]way[G]
[Cm]Hi, [G]hi, hi, hi, hi!
