[Dm] [F]
[A] [F] [E]
[A] [A]
South of the [D] border, [C#m] down [D] Mexico way, that's where I fell [F#m] in love when stars above [Em] [G] came
out to [A] play.
Now [D] as I [C] wonder, [Bm] [Am] my thoughts [G] never [B] stay.
[Em] [Dm] [F#m] South of the border, [A] down [D] Mexico way, [B] she [F#m] was a picture
[C#m] in old [D] Spanish [F#m]
lace.
There [D] for a [F#m] tender while, I kissed her smile [Em] [G] upon her [A] face.
For it [D] was [C] Fiesta, [Bm] [Am] and it [G] was so [B]
[Em] gay.
[Dm] [F#m] South of the border, [A] down Mexico [F#m] way.
[B] And she [F#m] sighed as [E] I [G] whispered, mañana, [A] never dreaming that we were [F#m] partying.
And I lied for I [Em] whispered, mañana, [A] for tomorrow never [D] came.
South of the border, [A] I wrote back [F#m] one day.
[D] There in a [F#m] veil of white, by [D#]
candlelight, [G] she knelt to [A] pray.
The [D] missing bells [C] told me [B] [Am] that I [G] mustn't stay.
[B] Oh [Em] no, no, [F]
south [F#m] of the border, [A] down [D] Mexico way.
[A] Ay, ay, ay, [C#] [A] ay, ay, ay, [F#m] ay, ay, ay, [A] ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, [F#] ay, ay, ay, [B] ay, ay, ay,

And she sighed as I [G] whispered, mañana, [A] never dreaming that we were [F#m] partying.
And I lied for I whispered, [G] mañana, [A] for tomorrow never [D] came.
South [F#m] of the border, [A] I wrote back one [F#m] day.
[B] There [D] in a [F#m] veil of white, by [G] candlelight, she knelt to [A] pray.
The [D] missing bells [C] told me [Bm]
