INTRO:(Ad lib) (Capo 1st fret for orig.)
A
It was a moonlit night in Old Mexico.

I walked alone between some old adobe haciendas.

Suddenly, I heard the plaintive cry of a 

young Mexican girl:
      A                     F#m                    D
La la la..la la la la la la la...la la la la la la la... 
                  E7
la la la la la la la.

#1.
E7                             A                        F#m
You better come home Speedy Gonzales, away from Cannery Row.
                 D                                 E7
Stop all of your drinking, with that floosie named Flo.
                      A                              F#m
Come on home to your adobe, and slap some mud on the wall.
                           D
The roof is leaking like a strainer. 
E7                              A   D A
There's loads of roaches in the hall.

CHORUS:
          D                                          A
Speedy Gonzales (Speedy Gonzales) why don't you come home?
          D                              
Speedy Gonzales (Speedy Gonzales),how come you leave me 
     E7
all alone?

(Ad lib)Hey, Rosita, I have to go shopping downtown 

for my mother.

She needs some Tortillias and Chilli Peppers.
      A                     F#m                    D
La la la..la la la la la la la...la la la la la la la... 
                  E7

                     D                            E7
No enchiladas in the icebox, and the television's broke.
                            A
I saw some lipstick on your sweatshirt, I smelled some
                F#m
perfume in your ear.
                              D        E7
