[Verse 1]
     Am               G               Am
Halloween in Tijuana, full moon in my eyes
         Am                          G            Am
I wonder how in the hell I got here, without a disguise
Am                               G            Am
Should I take this last step, or turn myself around
   Am                    G              Am
Or follow my intuition into that border town
[Chorus]
F       Am     E7         Am
Yo quiero a bailar en Mexico
          Am                G          Am
We do the desperation samba con nos amigos
F       Am     E7         Am
Yo quiero a bailar en Mexico
          Am                G          Am
We do the desperation samba con nos amigos
[Verse 2]
Am                       G                 Am
Pretty girls they beckon from their rooms above
Am                    G              Am
Skeletons are dancing in the name of love
Am                            G                     Am
Don't know where I'm going, I don't like where I've been
Am                       G               Am
There may be no exit but hell, I'm going in
[Chorus]
F       Am     E7         Am
Yo quiero a bailar en Mexico
          Am                G          Am
We do the desperation samba con nos amigos
F       Am     E7         Am
Yo quiero a bailar en Mexico
          Am                G          Am
We do the desperation samba con nos amigos

[Bridge]
  C               G            Bb                F
I hear the people singing that same old haunting tune
  C               G         Bb             F    E7
I drink because I know it's me against the moon
[Chorus]
F       Am     E7         Am
Yo quiero a bailar en Mexico
          Am                G          Am
We do the desperation samba con nos amigos
