Chris Isaak - South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way): guitar chords

              A     E7            A
South of the border, down Mexico way,
                A                                 E7
that's where I fell in love when stars above came out to play.
              A                          D
And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray,
              A     E7            A
South of the border, down Mexico way.

She was a picture, in old spanish ways
Just for a tender while, I kissed the smile upon her face
For it was fiesta and love had its day
South of the border, down Mexico way

Chorus:
          A                          E
Then she sighed as she whispered "mañana",
       E7                    A
never dreaming that we were parting.
       A                      D
And I lied as I whispered "mañana"
           A    E7      A
for our tomorrow never came.

South of the border, I rode back one day
There in a veil of white by candlelight, she kneeled to pray
The mission bells told me that I shouldn't stay
South of the border, down Mexico way

Aye, aye, aye, aye (aye, aye, aye, aye)
Aye, aye, aye, aye (aye, aye, aye, aye)
Aye, aye, aye, aye (aye, aye, aye, aye)
Goodbye, goodbye
Ayayaya,   goodbye, goodbye.
