                   Em      D              G 
And I dream in the morning, she brings me water, 
               A                      D 
And I dream in evening, she brings me wine. 
                  G        C 
Just a poor man's daughter, 
              G 
From Puerto Penasco. 
      D               G 
Evangelina in old Mexico. 
 
 
 
                    Em     D             G 
There's a great hot desert, south of Mexicali. 
                      A                         D 
And if you don't have water, boy you better not go. 
              G       C 
Tequila won't get you, 
G Across that desert. D G To Evangelina in old Mexico. Bm F And the fire I feel for the woman I love, C G Is driving me insane. D Knowing she's waiting, C G And I can't get there. Bm F And God only knows that I've racked my brain, C G To try to find a way, D G To reach that woman in old Mexico. Em D G A D G C G D G INSTRUMENTAL Em D G And I met a kind man, he guarded the border. A D He said 'You don't need papers, I'll let you go'. G C I can tell that you love her, G By the look in your eyes now. D She's the rose of the desert, G In old Mexico. Bm F And the fire I feel for the woman I love, C G Is driving me insane. D Knowing she's waiting, C G And I can't get there. Bm F And God only knows that I've racked my brain, C G To try to find a way, D G To reach that woman in old Mexico. Em D G And I dream in the morning, she brings me water, A D And I dream in evening, she brings me wine. G C Just a poor man's daughter, G From Puerto Penasco. D G South of the border, in old Mexico. D C Evangelina I miss you so, G I miss you so.
