Chords

[Intro] F C G7 C [Chorus 1]
          C
Won't you pour me another tequila, Sheila.

                        G
Take off that red satin dress.

G
I crossed the border, and I beat the dealer,

    G7                      C
for all the damn gold in Juarez.

  C
I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila.

              C7       F
And I got the pesos to spend.

   F                 C      A7
So pour me another tequila, Sheila,

    D7           G        C
and lay down and love me again.
[Verse 1]
C
No, I can't tell you about it.

                             G7
But don't mind my gun by the bed.

  G7
I feel kinda naked without it,

                             C
but it eases the fears in my head.

     C
Just pass me the salt and the lemon,

                   C7           F
then bend down and blow out the light.

  F                      C      A7
I never have trusted the women, Sheila,

    D7        G           C
but I'm gonna trust you tonight.
[Chorus 2]
        C
You can pour me another tequila, Sheila.

                        G
Take off that red satin dress.

G
I crossed the border, and I beat the dealer

    G7                      C
for all the damn gold in Juarez.

  C
I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila,

             C7       F
I sure could use me a friend

   F                 C      A7
So pour me another tequila, Sheila,

    D7           G        C     D
and lay down and love me again.
[Verse 2]
    D
Oh, Sheila, I'm hearin' your heartbeat,

                          A7
but I'm hearing footsteps outside.

      A7
That old courtyard is crawlin' with damn Federales.

                                    D
And Sheila, there ain't no place to hide.

  D
Now I don't know who could have tipped 'em,

              D7          G
'cause nobody knew it but you.

    G                      D         B7
And I can't make love to a squealer, Sheila

     E7                 A7           D
So I guess there's just one thing to do.
[Chorus 3]
        D
You can pour me another tequila, Sheila.

                                    A7
And I'm gonna put on your red satin dress.

A7
You put on my clothes, and you go face the dealer

                           D
and Sheila, I wish you the best.

  D
I feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila.

              D7          G
I need a fast horse and a friend.

   G                 D     B7
So pour me another tequila Sheila,

         E7           A7      D
and I'll ride for the border again.

      G                 D      B7
Yeah, pour me another tequila, Sheila,

         E7           A7      D
and I'll ride for the border again.
