He Never Came Back From Mexico- Gary P. Nunn
Intro DGAD
[D]Riding high on a [G]blacktop sky
[A]Moon is shinin on the desert tonight
[D]500 miles down the [G]Pan-American [A]highway
[D]Leavin Texas [G]broke my heart
[A]Now I'm off to a [D]brand new start
[G]They'll be wonderin where I am by [A]Friday
[G]Checkin out of the [A]same ol' grind
[D]Nothin but blue skies [G]on my mind
Back home I [A]know they'll say
Well we [G]told him not to go but he [A]went anyway
Chorus-
And he [D]never came back from [G]Mexico
[A]What he's doin there no[D]body knows
[G]He left this town a long[Em] time ago
And he [A]never came back....
Takin on a golden glow
On the shores of Old Mexico
Ridin the waves where the sea meets the Cia De Madre
She was barefoot in my dreams
Spanish angel in stonewashed jeans
Something in her eyes seemed to whisper follow me
Givin up on that 9 to 5
I'm gonna have the time of my life
Back home I know they'll say
Well we told him not to go but he went anyway
Repeat Chorus-
Bridge-
[C]I'll be drinkin that [G]Cuervo Gold
[D]Gettin young be[A]fore I get old
[C]They'll say he's in [G]trouble somewhere
[A]Guess he must have gone crazy down [Em]there....[G]whoa-o-whoa-o-whoa[D]
[DGAD]
Last Chorus-
And he [D]never came back from [G]Mexico
[A]What he's doin there no[D]body knows
[G]He left this town a long[Em] time ago
And he [A]never came back....from Old [D]Mexico [DGADDAD]
