C                                Am
My happiest memories are Mexico
                         Em
When you didn't have to go

Why are you so far away?
Dm          G                       C
Sleep down, sleep down, sleep and stay


[Verse 2]

 Am       Dm          G       C
How much gold is in a ton of dirt?
Am        Dm        G         C
One whole dollar worth
 Am        F              G         C
And if we meet just one time in the year
 Am        Dm       G           C
Does that make me more or less dear?


[Verse 3]

C                 Am
I don't want you always just my guest
                                Em
Wrap in my Mexican blanket and rest

You are so sweet to love
 Dm                   G              C
But we're never never really together


[Verse 4]

 Am        F            G      C
You're my one the only dear to me
 Am         Dm       G     C
A thousand miles across the sea
 Am         F      G       C
You're not here, I'm not there
Am       Dm      G     C
We're apart and I'm lonely


[Guitar Break]

[Verse 5]

 C
Let's do some truthful talking
 Am                                 Em
Cause I'm getting tired of walking nowhere;

This framework doesn't work
Dm                G                        C
Kick the dragon, nothing else I'm fired up truck
            F     G         C
You're not here, I'm not there
Am     Dm      G        C
We're apart
