From [Am] a phone booth in Vegas, [C] Jessie calls at [G] 5 a.m.
To tell me [Am] how she's tired [C] of [G] all of this.
She says, baby [Am] I've been thinking [C] about a trailer [G] by the sea.
We could [Am] go to Mexico, [C] you, the [D] cat, and me.
[Em] We'll drink tequila [G] and look for [Em] seashells.
Now doesn't [C] that sound sweet?
