This is my third night under bright shooting stars
C G D
I have crossed into Mexico, maybe that's where you are
C G C
You told me you'd come here, if our love should end
G D G D
Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind

So I followed the dusty roads into Flores Magon
C G D
And they said you had left there for Aquiles Ser- dan
C G C
You told me you'd come here, if our love should end
G D G
Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind
C G
There's a place in the desert where we let it be- gin
C G
We would dance close together as the candles would dim
C G
In a quiet can- tina with sweet mando- lins
Am G D G
As they'd serenade softly on the Mexican wind

My life seems to slow down, the further I go
C G D
Into the bare heart of old Mexi- co
C G C
Still I keep searching for someone who once let me in
G D G
But somehow I lost him to the Mexican wind
C G
There's a place in the desert where we let it be- gin
C G
We would dance close together as the candles would dim

In a quiet can- tina with sweet mando- lins
Am G D Em B
As they'd serenade softly on the Mexican wind

Eighty miles past the border on the Mexican wind ---
