Mexico chords
James Taylor 1975
Capo II
D A G A E A D G 2x

Way down here you need a reason to move
D A G
Feel a fool running your stateside games
D A G
Lose your load, leave your mind behind, Baby James
E B A
Oh, Mexico
E B A E
It sounds so simple I just got to go
B A E
The sun's so hot I forgot to go home
G A E G
Guess I'll have to go now
D A G
"Americano" got the sleepy eye
D A G
But his body's still shaking like a live wire
D A G
Sleepy "Senorita" with the eyes on fire

Baby's hungry and the money's all gone
D A G
The folks back home don't want to talk on the phone
