[Verse 1]
[G]And[F#] I dr[G]eam in t[F#]he morning[Ebm][Em]
[D]That she brings me water[G].
And [F#]I dream in the [D]even[Ab]ing
[A]That she [D]brings me wine.
Just a poor man's [F#]daughter[G][C]
From [G]Puerta Pinasco.
[D]Evangelina in old Mexico.
[G]

[Verse 2]
There's a great [Em]hot [Ebm]desert[D]
[G]Down [F#]in Mexicali.
And [G]if you don't have [A]water
Boy, you'd better [D]not go.
Tequila won't [G]get [C]you
Across that [G]desert.[F#][G]
To [A]Evan[D]gelina, in old Mexico
[G]

[Verse 3]
[A][Chorus:]
[Bm]And the fire I [F#]feel for the [E]woman [F]I love
Is [C]drivin' me in[G]sane.
Knowin' she's [D]waitin',[C]
And I can't [G]get [A]there.
[Bm]God only knows t[D]hat I [G]wracked [F]my brain
[C]To try and find a way
[F#]To reach[G] that woman[D]
In old Mexico.
[F#][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]man
He guarded the bor[G]der[F#]
He said, "You [G]don't need [A]papers,
I'll let you [D]go,
I can tell that you [G]love [C]her
By the look in [A]your [D]eye[G]s, now".
She's the rose of [D]the [C#]deser[D] t[G][F#]

[Verse 5]
[Chorus]
And I dream [Em]in t[D]he morning
That she brings me [G]water
[D]And [F#]I dream in [D]the [A]evening
That she brings me [D]wine.
Just a poor man's [G]daugh[F#]ter[G][C]
From [G]Puerta Pinasco.
South of the [D]border
In old Mexico
[G]Eva[F#]ngeli[G]na[A], I [D]miss you so.[C]
I miss [G]you so.
