DELBERT McCLINTON "Down Into Mexico"(Cost of living 2005.)
 
[Verse 1]
 
Em                        G
There was a casino out in Vegas
Em                           G
Had a million dollars on the wall
Em                         G
Got my imagination workin' overtime
  C                      Em
I knew I had to have it all
  C                     G
I knew I had to have it all
Em                              G
Sherrie was a dancer; she was a schemer
Em                           G
We came it with a fool-proof plan
Em                          G
She was workin' it from the inside
  C               Em
I was her getaway man Yeah,
  C               G
I was her getaway man
 
[Chorus]
 
D                        Em
Takin' it deep down into Mexico
           C                          Em
No turnin' back once you go down that road
         D                          Em
Just one place for a desperate Desperado to go
        C                  Em
Take it deep down into Mexico
        C                  G
Take it deep down into Mexico
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em                                G
It all went smooth and sweet like honey
Em                           G
We got it all and nobody got hurt
Em                                   G
Me and Sherrie, we were countin' our money
C                              Em
When that gun slide out of her purse
C                              G
When that gun slide out of her purse
 
[Verse 3]
 
Em                                G
That's when she told me 'bout her lover man
Em                                     G
That's when I knew I was in a terrible mess
Em                              G
She took the blame; he took the money
C                     Em
I took a bullet in my chest
C                     G
I took a bullet in my chest
 
 
chorus X 2:
 
D                        Em
Takin' it deep down into Mexico
           C                          Em
No turnin' back once you go down that road
         D                          Em
Just one place for a desperate Desperado to go
        C                  Em
Take it deep down into Mexico
        C                  G
