through Corpus & Harlingen not much further now
A7              D           G            C
Cicadas buzzin in the trees top down on this beat up jeep
A7              D            G                  C
Refineries are all turned on stereo up, blastin our favorite songs

South Padre island's only two miles away
       Em                            C
we can see the cars lined up single file today
G                          B7
That smell of sea-salt all up in the air
        Em                        C
I can't wait to jump I just can't wait to be there
G                  B7
Them Border Guards check us in
      Em                    C
we're stuck behind this old ragged out benz
G                   B7
Matamorez you still look the same
     Em                         C
last time we were here we all went insane
G                  B7
uh oh there's that 18th parallel
Em                        C
that Caribean breeze, man what a smell
 
[Chorus]
G      C           D              G
Mexico here we are not a cloud in sight
G         C                     C                       G
check out that north star man we made it through the night
G         C             D               G
Oh Mexico here we are right here in you
