ZZ Top – Goin Down To Mexico (Guitar)

      F5 G5                 Bb5  G5 Bb5
I was on   my way down to Mex - ic-o

C5        F5  G5               Bb5   G5 Bb5
There was trouble on the rise

C5     F5 C5                     Bb5 G5 Bb5
It was nothing more than I'd left    behind

C5        F5  G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
Which was much  to my surprise

C5 C7
 I turned around and lit a cigarette

C7
Wiped the dust off of my boots

     F5 G5         Bb5    G5   Bb5 C5
When up ahead I saw   the crowd

  F5   G5           Bb5 G5 Bb5 C5
I knew it was no use

     D7
It's been the same way for oh so long

   C7                             Bb5        Bb5 C5  Bb5 C5
It looks like I'm singing the same  old song

  F5  G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
A fine  and fancy man was he

C5    F5     G5               Bb5 C5 Bb5
Doing good things for the poor

C5     F5   G5                           Bb5    G5 Bb5 C5
Giving rides  in his rocking Eighty-eight   for free

      F5   G5               Bb5  G5 Bb5
They could not hope for more

C5      C7
When it came my turn he said to me

C7
"Have I seen your face before?"

       F5 G5              Bb5 G5  Bb5 C5
I said,  "Oh no, you must be  wrong

    F5   G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
I'm from a distant shore"

C5 D7
So if you don't mind I'll just move along but

             C7                    Bb5          Bb7
It looks like  I'm singing the same   old song

  F5               Bb5 G5 Bb5
A Nineteen Forty movie star

C5     F5  G5             Bb5  G5 Bb5
With a long forgotten name

C5        F5 G5                Bb5 G5 Bb5 C5
She was a sexy mess in her pleated dress

     F5 G5              Bb5 G5 Bb5
Still hanging on to fame

C5      C7
With forgotten lines she missed her cue

C7
And left a glass of wine at home

        F5 G5                      Bb5 G5 Bb5 C5
She was singing the same song that I   was

F5    G5               Bb5  G5 Bb5 C5
Could we both be wrong?

   D7
So hand in hand we walked along,

C7
Each of us singin' the same old song.
