Capo 2 

Intro: G G  

G 
This is my third night under bright shooting stars 
       C            G                              D 
I have crossed into Mexico, maybe that's where you are 
    C             G                             C 
You told me you'd come here, if our love should end 
                      G             D       G      G G D 
Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind  

     G 
So I followed the dusty roads into Flores Magon 
         C            G                           D 
And they said you had left there for Aquiles Ser- dan 
    C             G                             C 
You told me you'd come here, if our love should end 
                      G             D       G 
Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind

          C                                       G 
There's a place in the desert where we let it be- gin 
         C                                         G 
We would dance close together as the candles would dim 
                C                      G 
In a quiet can- tina with sweet mando- lins 
                   Am     G D              G 
As they'd serenade softly on the Mexican wind 

Instrumental 
Am G D D G C G D 

   G 
My life seems to slow down, the further I go 
C        G                       D 
Into the bare heart of old Mexi- co 
             C             G                       C 
Still I keep searching for someone who once let me in 
              G               D       G 
But somehow I lost him to the Mexican wind

There's a place in the desert where we let it be- gin 
         C                                         G 
We would dance close together as the candles would dim 
                C                      G 
In a quiet can- tina with sweet mando- lins 
                   Am     G D              Em   B 
As they'd serenade softly on the Mexican wind 

       C              G             D            G
