[Vers 1:]

[N.C.]       Eb     Fm7      Bb7    Eb                  Eb           
South of the border     down Mexico way, that's where I fell in love 

     Gm7    Gbdim7    Bb7                       Eb     Eb7 
when stars above came out to play. And now as I wander     

                 Ab                 Gm7 Dbdim7 Fm7  Bb7    Eb   Bb1+8 
my thoughts ever stray south of the border     down Mexico way.       

[Vers 2:]

          Eb      Fm7    Bb7         Eb               Eb           
She was a picture     in old Spanish lace, just for a tender while 

  Gm7        Gbdim7  Bb7                       Eb    Eb7 
I kissed the smile upon her face. For it was Fiesta,     

               Ab               Gm7 Dbdim7 Fm7  Bb7    Eb   
and we were so gay south of the border     down Mexico way. 

[Bridge:]

         Eb                        Fm7   
Then she sighed as she whispered manana, 

      Bb7                   Eb             Eb        Dbdim7      Fm7  
never dreaming that we were parting, and I lied as I whispered manana 

          Eb     Bb7   Eb    Bb1+8 
for our tomorrow never came.       

[Vers 3:]

             Eb     Fm7   Bb7           Eb              Eb            
South of the border     I rode back one day, there in a veil of white 

   Gm7    Gbdim7    Bb7                              Eb      Eb7 
by candle light she knelt to pray. The mission bells told me     

               Ab                 Gm7 Dbdim7 Fm7  Bb7    Eb   
that I mustn't stray south of the border     down Mexico way. 

[Ending:]

            Bb7             Eb              Bb7 Bb1+8 Bb7   Eb6      
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay. ---- 

          Eb6
