C
I hear mariachi static on the radio
G
and the tubes they glow in the dark.
And I'm there with her in Encinada
C
when I'm here in Echo Park

CHORUS:
F
Carmelita, hold me tighter
C F
I think I'm sinkin' down.
C G
And I'm all strung-out on heroin
G C
on the out--skirts of town.
C
Well I pawned my Smith and Wesson
G
and I went to meet my man.
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
C
by the County(Pioneer) Chicken stand.
(Chorus)
C
Well I'm sittin' here playin' Russian roulette
G
with my pearl handled gun.
The county won't give me no more methadone
C
and they cut off your welfare check.
(Chorus)x2
