[Verse 1]
Am C Am
Big veranda
C Am
Stately trees
Dm F G Am
Servants bring me fruit and cheese
C Am
Flowers bloom and
C Am
Feed their bees
Dm F G
Underneath the Sword of Damocles
[Chorus]
F
And I'm shooting speed
G
'Cause that's what I do
Am Dm Am Dm
When I can't get what I need from you
C Dm C Dm
In Mexico
[Verse 2]
Am C Am
Every Eden
C Am
Has its price
Dm F G Am
Here you have to pay it twice
C Am C Am
Servants bring me beans and rice
Dm F G
But there's snakes in every Paradise
[Chorus]
F
'Cause I'm shooting speed
G
And that's what I do
Am Dm Am Dm
When I can't get what I need from you
C Dm C Dm
In Mexico
C Dm C Dm
In Mexico
[Bridge]
Dm Am Dm C
I'm the crazy one they can point to
Dm Am Dm C
I'm the one who's taking the heat
F Dm
So I slip out at night
C G
And walk through the street
[Verse 3]
Am C Am
I say "yes sir"
C Am
I say "ma'am"
Dm F G Am
When they ask me who I think I am
C Am C Am
Servants bring me steak and lamb
Dm F G
While I measure by the milligram
[Chorus]
F
And I'm shooting speed
G
'Cause that's what I do
Am Dm Am Dm
When I can't get what I need from you
C Dm C Dm
In Mexico
C Dm C Dm
In Mexico
C Dm C Dm
Oh, in Mexico
[Outro]
Dm C Dm Am Dm C D Am
Big veranda
Stately trees
Servants bring me
Fruit and cheese
Flowers bloom and
Feed their bees
Underneath the
Sword of Damocles
And I'm shooting speed
Cause that's what I do
When I can't get what I need
From you
In Mexico
Every Eden
Has its price
Here you have to
Pay it twice
Servants bring me
Beans and rice
But there's snakes in
Every Paradise
Cause I'm shooting speed
And that's what I do
When I can't get what I need
From you
In Mexico
In Mexico
I'm the crazy one they can point to
I'm the one who's taking the heat
So I slip out at night
And walk through the street
I say yes sir
I say ma'am
When they ask me
Who I think I am
Servants bring me
Steak and lamb
While I measure
By the milligram
And I'm shooting speed
Cause that's what I do
When I can't get what I need
From you
In Mexico
In Mexico
