**Capo 3**
  Am-  C  
AmFather says head down
We don't want them fCinding you
AmMother says practice now
All the words you kCnow
Oh, DmArizona's bAmurning
They sCay the feGnce turned roFund
Now the razor wire keeps us Amout
  Am-  C  
AmMother says with luck
We'll sleep under a rCoof tonight
AmFather says in the truck
We'll be crushed in tCight
Oh, ChiDmcago don't forAmget me
As the mCiles betwGeen us gFrow
Keep the mGaple tree carved with the nAmame of my love
The hBbills we would sCled race dFown
Lake MBbichigan sCtay eFndless and painted in sGky
Goodbye
AmMother says years ago
The whole world was oCurs to rule
AmFather says let it go
Those days are gone for gCood
All the sDmigns read no grAmingo
But soCmehow we'll fGind our wFay
Maybe waGiting at dawn by the fAmactory doors
SBbunburnt and bCent in the fiFelds
Hey, dBbon't turn us Cin
We'll be sFilent as the grGave

Father says head down

We don't want them finding you

Mother says practice now

All the words you know

Dm Am

Oh, Arizona's burning

C G F

They say the fence turned round

Now the razor wire keeps us out

Am C

Mother says with luck

We'll sleep under a roof tonight

Father says in the truck

We'll be crushed in tight

Dm Am

Oh, Chicago don't forget me

C G F

As the miles between us grow

G Am

Keep the maple tree carved with the name of my love

Bb C F

The hills we would sled race down

Bb C F G

Lake Michigan stay endless and painted in sky

Goodbye

Mother says years ago

The whole world was ours to rule

Father says let it go

Those days are gone for good

Dm Am

All the signs read no gringo

C G F

But somehow we'll find our way

G Am

Maybe waiting at dawn by the factory doors

Bb C F

Sunburnt and bent in the fields

Bb C

Hey, don't turn us in

We'll be silent as the grave

As time

No gringo, no gringo aqui

You have stayed in this land for too long

Tan amargo

Dm Am

But there's no time to grieve

F C G

You just pack up your things and move on

And move on
