Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]The crops are all in
And the [G]peaches are [D]rotting
The oranges piled up
In their [A]creosote [D]dumps
You're [G]flying 'em [D]back
To the Mexican border
To spend all their money
[A]To wade back again
[D]

[Verse 2]
[Chorus]
Good [G]bye to my Juan
[D]Goo[A]dbye[D] Rosalita
[A]Adios mis amigos Je[D]sus why Maria
You [G]won't have a name
[D]When [A]you [D]ride the big airplane
All they will call you
Will [A]be [D]"de[A]por[D]tees"

[Verse 3]
Some of [D]us are illegal
And [G]others not [D]wanted
Our work contract's up
And we [A]have to move [D]on
[G]Six hundred miles to [A]that [D]Mexican border
They chase us like outlaws
Like [A]rustlers, like [D]thieves

[A][Chorus]
[D]The[G][D][A][D][G]
[D][A][D]
skyplane caught fire
Over [G]Los Gatos [D]Canyon
A fireball of lightning
[A]Shook all our [D]hills
Who [G]are all these [D]friends
[F#m]Who ar[D]e scattered like dried leaves
The radio said
They were [A]just "deportees"
