Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
I didn't even bother to set the alarm
If I'm a few hours late what's the harm
I've been in Mexico, I've been in Mexico
I've discovered how to take it slow
I've been in Mexico
Now the boss is stressed out, he's got his deadlines to meet
I'm leanin back in my chair in my two bare feet
I've been in Mexico, oh Mexico
Still got the sun on my back and the sand in my toes
I've been in Mexico
Chorus
And when I landed in the land of the Aztec sun
I was too uptight and too high strung
But the moment that salt air hit my tongue I felt a change
Nobody ever goes and comes back the same
When she left me for another I was down and out
But there's a little cactus cure I've learned about
I've been in Mexico, oh Mexico
And to that heartache I say adios, I've been in Mexico
Solo
Chorus
So take my sunglasses with you, leave your watch behind
Could you please tell Maria I'm doin fine
N/
I've been in Mexico
Oh Mexico
