Chords

My first contribution to UG! Watch the video for how the chords are picked, Granger alternates on the chords, but it sounds fine just using these chords, I personally throw in a couple of Am7's in between the Am chords to create a similar effect and find this adds to it. Sounds good with occasionally palm muting or just plain chords. [Intro] Am G D Am G D [Verse 1]
Am
You’re my little senorita
Sippin’ a margarita So hot you’re stealin’
                 G    D
Thunder from the sun

Am
Oh, you know you got ‘em
Curves so exotic We ain’t in the tropics
                        G
But you feel like a vacation

                 D
With that bikini top comin’ undone
[Chorus]
                      Am
I ain’t never been to Mexico
But layin’ here with you is so damn close
                   G
I don’t ever wanna let you go

                    D
Sun on your body is sweeter than agave gold

                 Am
Tequila drippin’ off your lips
Kissing Coppertone off your skin
                 G
Takin’ me places I’ve never been
D N.C. (Let the D ring) I’m running my hands through the sand on the Cancun coast
                          Am
But I ain’t never been to Mexico

                     G          D
No, I ain’t ever been to Mexico
[Verse 2]
Am
I hear thеre’s somethin’ in the watеr
In Puerto Vallarta Girl, I think we oughta
                            G
Go and book a one way flight

                          D
We can be there in no time

Am
I hear the days feel longer
Nights ain’t any shorter Girl, what you say
                          G
We go south of the border tonight?

                           D
Yeah, we can take a little ride
[Chorus]
                      Am
I ain’t never been to Mexico
But layin’ here with you is so damn close
                   G
I don’t ever wanna let you go

                    D
Sun on your body is sweeter than agave gold

                 Am
Tequila drippin’ off your lips
Kissing Coppertone off your skin
                 G
Takin’ me places I’ve never been

                                 D
I’m running my hands through the sand on the Cancun coast
[Interlude/Break] Am G D [Chorus]
                      Am (Single strum occassionally)
I ain’t never been to Mexico
But layin’ here with you is so damn close
                   G
I don’t ever wanna let you go

                    D (start strumming again on this chord)
Sun on your body is sweeter than agave gold

                 Am
Tequila drippin’ off your lips
Kissing Coppertone off your skin
                 G
Takin’ me places I’ve never been

                                 D
I’m running my hands through the sand on the Cancun coast

                          Am
But I ain’t never been to Mexico

                     G          D
No, I ain’t ever been to Mexico
[End] Am G D (Ring out)
