ME AND JULIO DOWN BY THE SCHOOLYARD
G C
Mama pyjama rolled outta bed, she ran to the police station
D G
When the cop found out, he began to shout, he started the investigation
D G
And it's against the law, it was against the law
D G
What what mama saw, it was against the law
Mama looked down and spit on the ground ever time her name gets mentioned
The cop said oy, if I get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in the house of detention
C G
Well I'm on my way, I don't know where I'm goin'
C G A D
I'm on my way, takin' my time, but I don't know where
C G
Goodbye to Rosie, the queen of Corona
F C D G C G D
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
F C D G C G D
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
(Instrumental break)
In a couple of days they're gonna take me away
When the press let the story leak
Now when the radical breach comes to get me released
Appears all on the cover of Newsweek
And I'm on my way, I don't know where I'm goin'
But I'm on my way, takin' my time, but I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie, the queen of Corona
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard

In a couple of days they come and take me away
But the press let the story leak
And when the radical priest come and get me released
We's all on the cover of Newsweek.
And I'm on my way, I don't know where I'm going
I'm on my way, takin' my time but I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie, Queen of Corona
See you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard
See you, me, and Julio down by the schoolyard
Note: intro pattern can be played using a D6 instead of D. If so,
play the intro as follows.
A = |x07655|
D6= |xx7777|
E = |xxx454|
This song also works well if one guitar plays in A as described and
the other capos 2 and plays in G.
