[C] [G] [G7] [C] [F] [C]
South of the [C] bor-[Em]der, [Dm] down [G] Mexico [C] way
(down [F] Mexico [C] way),
that’s where I fell in love, when [Em] stars a-[Dm]bove came [G] out to play. [G7]
And now as I [C] wander, [C7] my thoughts ever [F] stray, [Dm]
south of the [C] bor-[Em]der, [Dm] down [G] Mexico [C] way
(down [F] Mexico [C] way).
She was a [C] pic-[Em]ture [Dm] in [G] old Spanish [C] lace
(in [F] old Spanish [C] lace),
just for a tender while, I [Em] kissed a [Dm] smile u-[G]pon her face, [G7]
’cause it was [C] fiesta, [C7] and we were so [F] gay, [Dm]
south of the [C] bor-[Em]der, [Dm] down [G] Mexico [C] way
(down [F] Mexico [C] way).
Then she [C] sighed as she whispered man-[G]jana,
never dreaming that [G7] we were [C] parting.
And I lied as a whispered man-[G]jana,
for our to-[C]morrow [G] never [C] came.
South of the [C] bor-[Em]der, [Dm] I [G] rode back one [C] day
(I [F] rode back one [C] day),
there in a veil of white, by [Em] candle [Dm] light she [G] knelt to pray. [G7]
The mission bells [C] told me [C7] that I mustn’t [F] stay, [Dm]
south of the [C] bor-[Em]der, [Dm] down [G] Mexico [C] way
(the [F] Mexico [C] way).
Ay ay ay [G] ay, ay ay ay [C] ay. Ay ay ay [G] ay, ay - ay - [G7] ay - [C] ay.
