The [SOLO] section seems to start in A and work its way down the fret board
Am C Am
Am C Am Well I must have walked for fourteen days Am C Am All that I could carry and I made my way Am C G To the new holy land not a grand parade Am C Am Snuck across the border to the U.S.A. Am C Am Didn't take too long for me to find some work Am C Am Just stood there waitin round in the Texas dirt Am C G And now I lay concrete the way I did back home Am C Am From 6 am until the light is gone Am C Am Then it's back to the hotel drink a case of beer Am C Am One for every person that's livin' here Am C G Four dollars an hour but nobody moans Am C Am Cause it's three fifty more than we can get back home Am C Am Then I send the money back down to my sweet wife Am C Am So she can tell my children 'bout a better life Am C G Papa's tryin hard just to make it fine Am C Am Fifty miles north of that illegal line
[SOLO]
Am C Am Late one night they came in through the door Am C Am With guns and lights screamin' get on the floor Am C G They cuffed us up tight and hauled us all away Am C Am Couldn't hardly understand a single word they'd say Am C Am Early next mornin' judge drug us in Am C Am He stared us all down just like guilty men Am C G He said any of you boys got a thing to say? Am C Am I asked him what would he do if he was in my place Am C Am He said there's rules boy and this just aint the way Am C Am And I said sometimes a starvin' family just can't wait Am C G But he slammed down his gavel now I'm doin time Am C Am Fifty miles north of that illegal line Am C Am Fifty miles north of that illegal line-eeeeee
