[Verse]
                    Am                      D
It's how the story goes (it's how the story goes)
             G               Em
Down in Mexico (down in Mexico)
               Am                 D
Not that long ago (not that long ago)
              G                  Em
We were all alone (we were all alone)

          Am                                                D
And as my blood is filled with drinks (blood is filled with drinks)
                 G                                   Em
I'm wondering if you could be the one spending all my days
       Am                                            D
Now my head is filled with dreams (head is filled with dreams)
                       G                         Em
But yours are only past 17 and our time is overstayed

[Chorus]
         Am
Oh, no, away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
   Em
In afterglow
        Am
Oh, no, away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
   Em
In afterglow

       Am D
Oh oh no
       G Em
Oh yeah

[Verse]
                    Am                     D
Yeah, the water's cold (yeah, the water's cold)
                G                    Em
But her body's warm (but her body's warm)
                 Am                 D
See, I told her no (see I told her no)
                       G                        Em
But she's been here before (she took off her clothes)

              Am                                       D
And as we're dancing on the beach (dancing on the beach)
                  G                                     Em
I'm wondering if you could be the one spending all my days
      Am                                                 D
We pretend these stupid things (pretend these stupid things)
                             G                                        Em
'Cause we just want to feel love and leave but our high is bound to fade

[Chorus]
         Am
Oh, no, away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
   Em
In afterglow
        Am
Oh, no, away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
  
Em

      Am
Oh I think it's time I told her
     D
That these words about her
    G
She knew from the first verse
    Em
The memories in Cabo

 Am
Away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
   Em
In afterglow

[Bridge]
            Am                     D
Baby, can I kick it with you (with you)
          G                     Em
Again sometime (want to kick it with you)
                   Am                 D
Or go back to that place, me and you
                G      Em
We'll dance all night

        Am                             D
With my memories you sleep (memories you sleep)
                          G                                     Em
It's hard to picture your face now that I'm drifting out to sea

[Chorus]
         Am
Oh, no, away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
   Em
In afterglow
        Am
Oh, no, away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow

      Am
Oh I think it's time I told her
     D
That these words about her
    G
She knew from the first verse
    Em
The memories in Cabo

 Am
Away she goes
            D
The way she knows
                    G
She's leaving me in afterglow
   Em
