This song gave me a lot of trouble. He does a slide thing bettween F#m
and Gm that I can't do which makes it hard to get the chords in the right
place. I know they are close. Any feedback would be appreciated.
F#m=(2 4 4 2 2 2)
Gm=(3 5 5 3 3 3)
D=(x x 0 2 3 2)
Asus4=(x x 0 2 3 0)
E=(0 2 2 1 0 0)
A=(x 0 2 2 2 0)
All I Know About Mexico
[Intro]
F#m Gm D F#m Gm Asus4
[Verse 1]
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
I didn't know you weren't supposed to drink the water
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
I never knew it was so hard to get through south of that border
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
If I had any idea it took that many pesos to make a dollar
E D
I'd have moved down there, Yeah, I'd probably been a millionare
[Verse 2]
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
Rosa at the bayou told me Sinco de Mayo is their fourth of July
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
And you don't sneak up on a jabanero pepper and just take a bite
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
Rosa says the sunsets on some of them beaches that'll make you cry
E D
I said, is that right? Cause up until tonight
[Chorus]
D E A D E A
All I knew about Mexico, Was him with my baby on the back of that Harley
D E A
Passin' every car as fast as they could go
D E A
And all I know about a pretty white sand
D E A
Is she's probably on it now sharing a little beach towel
D E A E
With her "left me for another" man, Or working on a tan I bet
D F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
While I'm here trying to forget, all I know about Mexico
[Verse 3]
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm D
And I've heard some pretty scary stuff about them jails down in Tijuana
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm Asus4
And it ain't nothin' like the US if you get busted
F#m Gm Asus4
And I hear he's all hauked up on that marijuana
F#m Gm Asus4 F#m Gm
I can't help worrying about her being down there when he leaves her
Asus4 F#m E
And you know he's gonna leave her, any day now, yeah, the cops will come around,
D
Wanna know what I've known
[Chorus]
D E A D E A
All I know about Mexico, Was him with my baby on the back of that Harley
D E A
Passin' every car as fast as they could go
D E A
And all I know about a pretty white sand
D E A
Is she's probably on it now sharing a little beach towel
D E A E
With her "left me for another" man, Oh, she’s working on here tan I bet
D D E A D E A D F#m E
While I'm here trying to forget, all I know about Mexico
[Chorus]
D E A D E A
All I knew about Mexico, Was him with my baby on the back of that Harley
D E A
Passin' every car as fast as they could go
D E A
And all I know about a pretty white sand
D E A
Is she's probably on it now sharing her little beach towel
D E A E
With her "left me for another" man, Oh, she’s working on a tan I bet
D D E A
While I'm here trying to forget, all I know about Mexico
[Outro]

All I know, I know, I know, I know about Mexico
