Chorus:
D G Em
I donât think Iâll go, cross the border into Mexico
A D
Iâm gonna stay right here by my old campfire.
G Em
Just me and my old guitar, underneath Terlingua stars
A
Iâm gonna sit right here all night,
D
and watch the old sunrise.
D
Well Iâve been pickinâ with my friends
G
but it seems like theyâve all turned in.
Em A
I canât make myself go, you know the fireâs just right.
D
My old guitar sounds so good,
G Em
you know they say itâs all in the wood.
A
But I think it just might be the Terlingua quiet, it's so quiet.
(Repeat Chorus, then instrumental break-same chords.)
D
I ainât in no shape to drive,
G Em
I might not make it back alive.
A D
Besides Iâm having way too much fun here on this side.
D
Tell Jose I said ãBuenos Diosä,
G Em
Maybe next year heâll get to see us.
A D
Weâll have a cold beer or two and stay a little while.
(Repeat Chorus 3 times with slight variations on the words)
