South Of The Border

| D | Em A | D | D* | D Em A7 D D South of the border, down Mexico way, D Fdim7 Ddim7 A7 A7 that's where I fell in love when stars above came out to play. D D7 G G#dim7 And now as I wonder, m y thoughts ever stray, D Em A7 D D South of the border, down Mexico way. D Em A7 D D She was a picture in old Spanish lace ways, D Fdim7 Ddim7 A7 A7 just for a tender while I kissed the smile upon her face. D D7 G G#dim7 For it was fiesta and we were so gay, D Em A7 D D South of the border, down Mexico way. D Em Then she sighed as she whispered "mañana", A7 D never dreaming that we were parting. D B7 Em And I lied as I whispered "mañana" D A7 D D* for our tomorrow never came. D Em A7 D D South of the border I rode back one day, D Fdim7 Ddim7 A7 A7 there in a veil of white, by candlelight, she kneeled to pray. D D7 G G#dim7 The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay D Em A7 D D South of the border, down Mexico way. D Em Then she sighed as she whispered "mañana", A7 D never dreaming that we were parting. D B7 Em And I lied as I whispered "mañana" D A7 D D* for our tomorrow never came. End-Chorus D Em A7 D D South of the border I rode back one day, D Fdim7 Ddim7 A7 A7 there in a veil of white, by candlelight, she kneeled to pray. D D7 G G#dim7 The mission bells told me that I mustn't stay D Em A7 D G#dim7 South of the border, down Mexico way, D Em A7 D South of the border, down Mexico way.
