Words and music by Rick Roberts

(Note: The Fmaj7 and G6 forms in this song are played as they are in "Just Remember I Love You." And for those of you hard-cores, on the record the high E string was tuned down a full step to D.)

INTRO -- Am     Fmaj7     Am     Fmaj7



Am                           Fmaj7      Am                    Fmaj7

Last night it snowed for the first time, everything’s covered in white

Am                       Fmaj7                          G6
How many months till the springtime, it’s a long winter’s night

Fmaj7                   G6
I have to go, I feel I’m sinkin’

Fmaj7                              G6
I just don’t know, but I can’t stop thinkin’

Am     Fmaj7     Am     Fmaj7
Mexico

Am                           Fmaj7   Am                         Fmaj7
Somewhere that’s close to the ocean, somewhere that’s warm and alive

Am                       Fmaj7                    G6
Somewhere to sleep in the open, with the sun in my eyes

Fmaj7                   G6
I have to go, I feel I’m sinkin’

            Fmaj7                  G6
I just don’t know, but I can’t stop thinkin’

Am     Fmaj7     Am     Fmaj7
Mexico

SOLO (Over verse)

Fmaj7                    G6
Winter wind blowin’, and Lord but they sting

Fmaj7                  G6
Summer wind sing to me, promise me everything

Fmaj7                       G6
Blue skies and sunshine wherever I go

Fmaj7                G6                 Fmaj7
Sweet senoritas are, waiting to love me I know

Am     Fmaj7     Am     Fmaj7     Am     Fmaj7
Mexico,          Mexico,          Mexico
