Gringo Honeymoon Chords by Robert Earl Keen

[D] _ Here we go.
This is a gringo honeymoon.
_ [Ab] _ [G] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
We were standing on [Em] a mountaintop
_ [G] With a cactus [D] flowers grow.
_ _ _ I was wishing that [Em] the world would stop
[G] _
When you said we better [D] go
We _ took a robot across [Em] the Rio Grande
_ [G] Captain Pablo was our [D] guy
For two dollars [C] and a weathered hand
[G] He rode us to the [D] other side
_ _ [A] And we've been dreaming [Bm] life
The end was not [G] inside
And we dreamed all [D] afternoon _
We [A] _ asked the world [Bm] away
to go [G] celebrate _
A gringo honeymoon
_ We [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ stepped out on [Em] to the golden sand
[G] The Sun was high and [D] burning down _ _ _
Running down kids [Em] from an old blind man
[G] _ Saddled up and [D] rode the time
_ _ _ Tired of donkeys [Em] to an ironwood tree
[G] By the street where [D] children play
We went in the first [C] place we could see
_ [G] _ Serving cold beer [D] in the shade
_ [A] We were drinking [Bm] life
It was not inside
[G] And we drank all [D] afternoon _
_ [A] We asked the world [Bm] away
to go [G] celebrate
a gringo honeymoon _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ Met a cowboy [Em] said he
_ [G] Was running from the [D] DEA
_ He left his home his [Em] wife and family _
[G] When he made his [D] getaway
_ We followed him on [Em] down a street of [G] dust
To his one-room [D] run-down shack
He blew a smoke ring and [C] he smiled at us
[G] I ain't never [D] going back
[A] And we were flying [Bm] high
He was not [G] inside
And we're so bad afternoon
[D]
We _ [A] asked the world [Bm] away
to go [G] celebrate _
a gringo honeymoon _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
He said there's one last [Em] place she should go he [G] _ took us to the [D] town's best bar
_ He knew a crusty [Em] Caballero
_ [G] Who played an old gut string [D] guitar? _
_ _ And it sang like [Em] Marty Robbins could
_ [G] Play like no one [D] I've known _ _
For a while we knew that [C] life was good
[G] And it was ours to take [D] back home
_ [A] _ And we were singing [Bm] like the end was not [G]
inside
And we sang all afternoon
[D] _
We [A] _ asked the world [Bm] away
to go [G] celebrate _
a gringo honeymoon
We _
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _

[G] When he said _ _ _
We better [D] go
