[Bm] [C] [A] If you look [G] [D]
[C] [A] [G] for the wild [D] country, and you can live it without [C] your home, [A] then they [G] start
down in [D] Hitler.
So, I'm under the name [G] of [A] Spain.
[G] I'm under the name [C] of Spain.
[G] [D] If you follow [G] me, leave my life behind.
[D]
Take a walk to [C] sunshine.
[A] When [G] you're in the southern reaches, [D] you'll find a place where the sun shines.
It's where the making-of [C] the future's wild.
Looks a [G] little like California, [D]
prickly desert [Am] farmlands.

We knew that it was a life [E] of sin
[A] Why'd you [Em] move him into the [D] future?
You got a lot of action to [C] do
Hope he'll [G] break a lesson from the [D] neighbors
That's sure what [C] not to [Am] do
[D] Shoot him right in the bottom [G] in the [D] thirties
Right off the plate, you got [C] caught anyway
[A] And you [G] don't like the fool in the [D] trash
Under the [Am] bandage, spank
Under the bandage, spank

[F#m] [A] I wish that all the [F] Spanish kids
Have a happy family with [A] love and respect
[F] And [A] that's why I send a kiss to all the kids in the world
[Dm] We knew [F] that it was a life of [E] sin
[A] Why'd you [G] move him into the [D] future?
You got a lot of action [Am] to do
Hope [G] he'll break a lesson from the [D] neighbors
That's sure what not [C] to [Am] do
Shoot him [G] right in the bottom in the [D] thirties
Right off the plate, you got [C] caught [Am] anyway
