Verse 1
(G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) Well the sun's
settin' on the veranda
As the ceil (G major) in' fan stirs (A major) the air (D major)
I pour (G major) me another a- what (D major)
I've been drinkin'
Sit back in my wicker chair (A major)
She's (D major) still in that big house in Houston
Where (G major) we tried to find (A major) happiness (D major)
Some (G major) how I know she
would not (D major) understand it
If (A major) she could see me like (D major) this
Verse 2
There's (G major) no lawn to mow 'cause
the grass (D major) dosen't grow
(A major) People get high every day (D major)
(G major) It's a little bit hotter ya can
(D major) 't drink the water
A dol (G major) lar still goes a long (A major) way
Tequila (G major) is sweet, senor (D major) itas are neat
(A major) And peace of mind is free (D major)
Yeah, (G major) two- hundred miles south (D major) of the border
I found (A major) the American dream

Verse 3
(D major) We thought we'd found it in Houston
With the (G major) house and the cars
(A major) and the pool (D major)
Sometimes (G major) people own (D major) things,
sometimes things own you (A major)
I (D major) won't even bother to write her
She'd (G major) hate it down here (A major) anyhow
(D major) She can (G major) have all
the things (D major) we had together
I (A major) won't be needin' them now (D major)
Verse 4
There's (G major) no lawn to mow 'cause
the grass (D major) dosen't grow
(A major) People get high every day (D major) (G major)
It's a little bit hotter ya can
(D major) 't drink the water
A (G major) dollar still goes a long (A major) way
Tequila (G major) is sweet, senor (D major) itas are neat
(A major) And peace of mind is free (D major)
Yeah, (G major) two- hundred miles south (D major) of the border
I found (A major) the American (D major) dream
Yeah, two- (G major) hundred miles
south (D major) of the border
I found (A major) the American (D major) dream
