Mexico
I figured this out based on the fact that the first time I heard the song it reminded me of The Divided Sky, and worked from there. What I have only took about 15 min. to figure out, so imagine what someone who knows what they're doing can do with this song.
Intro:
Gtr. 1
A D Em D
e----------------------------------------------------
B-------5----x--------7----x--------8---x-------7----
G---------6--x----------7--x----------9-x--------7---
D--7-7-------x-7-7-7-------x-9-9-9------x-7-7-7------
A----------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------
Transition:
duh duh duh
can't figure out first three, then goes
C D A
e--3--5--0---
B--5--7--5---
G--5--7--6---
D--5--7--7---
A--3--5--0---
E--3--5------
Verse:
A-->D
It kind of follows the pattern of Sugar Magnolia
I use the open versions of these chords
A D A D
Day before my birthday me and my cousin Dave
A D
drove his truck down to the border
A D
and we hitchhiked the rest of the way
A D
down through Mexico.
Transition
Chorus:
This is almost exactly the same chorus as Sample In A Jar
A D Em
e--5--5--7---
B--5--7--8---
G--6--7--9---
D--7--7--9---
A--5--5--7---
E--5--5--7---
A D
Well I'm a million miles away from home
Em D
and I can't find a telephone.
A D
My folks don't even know where I am,
Em D
hell I don't even know where I am
The song goes on following the same basic pattern.
That's about all I can get right now. That should help get some people started. Guitar 2 and the nitty gritty are still in need of being figured out. Send corrections to me or to the web site.
