Waylon Jennings - Ain't No God In Mexico guitar chord

#

***************** AIN'T GOD IN MEXICO ******************

written by Billy Joe Shaver

performed by Waylon Jennings.

Verse 1:

D E

Down the road a ways i've heard said a new day's coming on

A D

Where the women folks are friendly and the law leaves you alone

E

I'll believe it when i see it and i haven't seen it yet

B E

Don't mind me just keep on talking i'm just looking for my hat

Chorus 1:

A E

There ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no way to understand

A

How that border crossing feeling makes afool out of a man

E

If i'd never felt the sunshine then i would not curse the rain

A

If my feet could fit a railroad track,i guess i'd been a train

Verse 2:

D E

Me and Louise Higgins-Botham used to chase across the yard

A D

Back in 1947 that's when more than times were hard

E

Well pity me i didn't find the line in time like a fool

B E

In front of God and everybody i politely blew my cool

Chorus 2:

A E

Ain't no God in Mexico,ain't no comfort in the king

A

When you're down in Madamoris getting busted by the man

E

If i'd never felt the sunshine,Hell i would not curse the rain

A

If i hadn't been railroaded well i guess i'd been a train
