A                   A6   E9          E7/9     E9  A 
South of the border,     down Mexico way 
E7                    A         D9               A            F#m           E      E7 
That's where I fell in love, where the stars above came out to play 
    E      E7  A            A7                 D         Dm 
And now as I wander    my thoughts ever stray 
               A       E9      E7/9       E9  A 
South of the border, down Mexico way 
A                  A6  E9        E7/9   E9   A 
She was a picture    in old Spanish lace 
E7           A           D9            A       F#m       E      E7 
Just for a tender while, I kissed a smile upon her face 
        E     E7    A      A7     A7          D    Dm 
'Cause it was fiesta     and  we  were so gay 
              A          E9          E7/9     E9   A 
South of the border,     down Mexico way 

Bridge 

E7                  A                       A6           E7 
Then she smiled as she whispered 'mañana' 
                       D9                     A 
Never dreaming that we were parting 
              A                  A7           D9 
And I lied as I whispered 'mañana' 
                     A       E7                A 
'Cause our tomorrow    never came 
A                 A6    E9          E7/9      E9  A 
South of the border, I jumped back one day 
E7               A           D9             A           F#m         E        E7 
There in a veil of white, by the candle light, she knelt to pray 
      E     E7         A   A7        A7           D    Dm 
The mission bells told    me that  I  musn't stay 
              A       E9          E7/9     E9  A 
South of the border, down Mexico way
