And I dream in the morning
[D] that she brings me water
And I dream [A] in the evening that she brings me [D] wine
Just a poor [G] man's daughter [C] from Puerto [G] Pinosco
[D] South of the border in old [G] Mexico
There's a [Em] great hot desert
[D] south of [G] Mexicali
If you don't [A] have water, boy, you better [D] not go
Tequila [G] won't get you [C]
across [G] that desert
To [D] Evangelina in old [G] Mexico
And [Bm] the fire I feel for [F] the woman I love [C] is driving me [G] insane
Knowing [D] she's waiting [C]
and I [G] can't get there
[Bm] God only knows [F] that I racked my brain [C] to try to find [G] a way
To reach [D] that woman in old [G] Mexico

He said, you don't [A] need papers, I'll [D] let you go
I can tell that you [G] love her [C]
by the look in [A] your eyes
[D] Now, [G]
she's the rose of [D] the desert
In old [G] Mexico
And [Bm] the fire I feel for [F] the woman I love [C] is driving me [G]
insane
Knowing [D] she's waiting and [C]
I [G] can't get there

And I dream [A] in the evening, she brings me [D] wine
[D] Just a [G] poor man and his daughter [C] from Puerto [G] Pinasco
