Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][C][Csus4][F][G][C]

[Verse 1]
I was [Am]walking
in [C]a midnight market
Through [Am]the shanties outside [C]Juarez
She had [Am]a flower in her hair and
[C]the band filled the air
As we [F]danced on [G]the day of the dead
[Am]

[Verse 2]
[C]
She said [Am]boy don't you know I am L[C]ola
And I be[Am]long to the local car[C]tel
[Am]A tear [F]filled her [G]eye as she
[C]kissed me goodbye
[F]And two federals they [G]tossed [C]me in jail

[Verse 3]
[C]Tonight I'm in [F]a Mexican [G]prison
My [C]cell mate is [F]making a [G]knife
Oh but [C]all I can think of is [F]her crying eyes
And [Am]how to make [G]sweet Lola m[C]ine
[F]Oh [Am]how to make s[G]weet L[C]ola mine

[Verse 4]
I had [Am]come there a backpack[C]traveler
With two [Am]crazy [C]Canadian friends
[Am]Billy and Jack, yeah [C]we go way back
But they [F]laughed and [G]they waved
as my [Am]paddy wagon left

[Verse 5]
I thought well [Am]damn ya boys,
I'll dream of [C]Lola
And her [Am]big auburn innocent [C]eyes
They can [Am]break all my [G]fingers till
[C]none of them [F]lingers
But I'll still make [G]sweet [C]Lola mine

[Verse 6]
[C]Tonight I'm in a [F]Mexican [G]prison
My [C]cell mate is [F]making a [G]knife
Oh but [C]all I can think of is [F]her crying eyes
And [Am]how to make [G]sweet Lola m[C]ine
[F]Oh [Am]how to make s[G]weet L[C]ola mine
[F]

[Interlude 1]

[C]

[Verse 7]
[Am]My cell mate he drew [C]a
finger across his throat
I [Am]thought well this [C]is the end
Aw but [Am]Billy [G]and jack they'd
bought [C]a burly [F]little ass
And that donkey broke
[G]the bars from that cement
[C]And on that don[F]key the[G] three
of us [C]we fled

[Verse 8]
[C]Tonight I'm breaking [F]out of a [G]prison
Yeah we're [C]making a [F]run for our [G]lives
Oh but [C]all I can think of is [F]her crying eyes
And [Am]how to make [G]sweet Lola m[C]ine
[F]Oh to[Am]night I [G]make sweet Lola [C]mine
[F]If we can [Am]get out of J[G]uarez alive
