[G]
You no longer notice [C] if I'm wearing [G] perfume
I seldom hear a loving word from [D] you
Your [G] attention's [C] wrapped up in the [Em] morning paper
[G] And I feel a [D] restless yearn for [G] something new
We used to [C] whisper love [G] across the night time
Now we're never whispering [D] your recall
[Am] [G] Our love is left [C] upon the shelf [G] of winter
Where the sunlight never [D] [Am] touches it [G] at all
It's [D] a habit for us to be [G]
together
[C] We sit and watch the deadly [G] shadows grow
Every day last year [C] I left for [G] California
This is [D] my year [G] for Mexico
Your [C] [G]
[D] [G]
back is turned [C] to me while you [G] are reading
I close my eyes while I pretend [D] to doze
[G] From the road I hear [C] the sound of passing [G]
traffic
Some of them [D] are bound for [G] Mexico
[D] It's a habit for us to be [G]
together
[C] We sit and watch the deadly [G] shadows grow
Every day last year [C] I left for [G] California
This is [D] my year for [G] Mexico
