South of the Border

C Dm G7 C Em 1. South of the border down Mexico way; Thats where I fell in love, where the stars above - came G7 C C7 F C G7 C out to play. And now as I wander, my thoughts ever stray South of the border - down Mexico way C Dm G7 C Em G7 2. She was a picture - in old Spanish lace, Just for a tender while, I kissed a smile upon C C7 F C G7 C her face Cause it was fiesta and we were so gay, South of the border down Mexico way C Dm G7 C REFRAIN: Then she smiled as she whispered manjana, Never dreaming that we were parting, Then I lied as a Dm G7 C whispered manjanna, cause our tomorrow never came South of the border - I jumped back one day There in a veil of white, by the candle light - she knelt to pray, The mission bells told me (ding-dong) - that I mustnt stay South of the border down Mexico way Thanks to Darryl Harris for tabs
