[Verse 1]
[D]I dream in the mor[Bm]ning[A]
That she brings me [D]water
And I dream in [E]evening
That she brings me [A]wine[F#m]
Just [A]a poor man's [D]daughter[G]
From [D]Puerto Penasco
[A]Evangelina in old Mexico
[D]

[Verse 2]
There's a great hot [Bm]desert
[A]South of [D]Mexicali
And if you don't have [E]wa ter
Then you better not [A]go[G][F#m]
Tequila [D]won't get [G]you
Across the deser[D]t
To Evan[A]gelina in old Mexico
[D]

[Verse 3]
And the [F#m]fire I feel for the
[C]Woman I love
Is [G]driving me in[D]sane
Knowing she's [A]waiting
And I just can't [D]get there
[F#m]Lord only knows that I've
[C]Racked my brain
[G]To try and find a [D]way
To see that [A]woman in old Mexico
[D]

[Verse 4]
I met a [Bm]kind [A]man
Who guarded the bor[D]der
He said you don't have [E]pa pers
But I'll let you [A]go[G][A][F#m]
I can [A]tell that you [D]love [G]her
By the look in your [D]eyes now
She's the rose of [A]the desert

[Interlude 1]
In old Mexico

To try [G]and find a [D]way
To see the [A]woman in old Mexico
[D]
