D
Down below El Paso lies Juarez
          Bm                 G             A
Mexico is different like the travel folder says
D                                    Bm
Cross the Rio Grande and you will find
G            A               G          A       D
An old adobe house where you leave your past behind
G                D
One day married  next day free
A                 D
Broken heart for you and me
G              D               Em  F#m Em   D
It's a sin for us to get a     Mexican divorce

I came into this lonely house last night
                   Bm           G                 A
I looked out of my window but I couldn't find one light
   D                            Bm
I lost you on that road to Mexico
    G             A          G         A            D
And now my love I beg darlin please oh please don't go
G                D
One day married  next day free
A                D
Broken heart for you and me
G                D               Em F#m  Em  D
It's no time for us to get a     Mexican divorce

[Instrumental]
G            D             A                   D
Finding love takes so long walking out well it must be wrong
G                D
It's no time for us to get
  Em  F#m  Em  D
A Mexican divorce
G                D
One day married  next day free
A                D
Broken heart for you and me
G              D               Em F#m  Em   D
It's a sin for us to get a     Mexican divorce
