[N] Knowing Bill as long [F] as I [G] have, I mean getting to know him, I mean really becoming friends with Bill is just the,
you know I love his guitars, [F] but I appreciate Bill [E] so much [D]
personally.
[F#] And you know he's really [D#]
actual [E] friends in life.
And we've done lots of stuff together.
[F] And one of the things that I tell you, some of the most [E] memorable time I've got to spend with Bill
is going on motorcycle trips with him.
When we go down and ride off-road motorcycles down in Baja.
[C]
This is a [D#] song that I made [Dm] up after [A] one of those trips.
[D] As I lay [E] sick and [D] broken, viva Mexico.
[Dm] My eyes just [F#] won't stay [Dm] open.
And I [D] dream, a dream of home.
I [G] dream, a dream of [A] home.
[D] Where there's [G] coffee [A] on the [D] table, and kindness in your hand.
Honey I'll help you when I'm able, but right now I'm feeling bad.
Right now I'm [A] feeling bad.
[G] Well listen to your heart [D] that beats, and follow [Em] it with [D] both your feet.
And [G] as you walk and [D] as you breathe, you ain't no friend.
You [G] ain't no friend to [A] me.
[G] Now the road to Ensenada [D] is plenty wide and fast.
If you head south from tier one, [G] I'll see [A] you at [D] last.
I'll see you [A] at last.
[D] But my [G] eyes they open [D] slowly, they look around the room.
The [G] old man he [D] seems worried, and [E] there ain't [D] no sign.
There ain't no [G] sign of [A] you.
[G] Well listen to your [D] heart that beats, and [G] follow [E] it with [D] both your feet.
And as you walk and as you breathe, you ain't no friend.
You ain't no friend to [A] me.
[Dm] Now you can offer to [D] the righteous all the good that [Dm] you have won.
But down [G] here among the [D] unclean, all [Bm] your good [A] just comes [D] undone.
All your good [G] just comes [A] undone.

[D] [G]
[D] [Bm] [D]
[A] [G] The [F#m] sisters at the borderline, they're holding [F#] out their [D] hands.
They're begging me for something Lord, oh but I don't understand.
I don't understand.
[A] [Dm] And so it's [G] adios to Alvaro, [D] telling to stay [F#] between the [D]
lines.
And if he [G] sees that [F#]
[D] Gabriela girl, tell [Bm] her I'll look her [D] up next time.
Say I'll look [G] her up [A] next time.
[D] Because the road to [E]
[D] Ensenada is [F#m] plenty wide [Dm] and fast.
[G] And this [F#m] time [D] through Tijuana, [Bm] it [D] won't be my last.
It [G] won't be my [A] last.
