Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Please don’t tell me I can’t make it

It aint gunna do me any good

And please don’t offer me your modern methods

Of fixing the carve this out of wood

From Nogales to Magdalena there sixty miles of sacred road

And the promise is made to those who venture; San Francisco will lift your load

Verse 2

In the land of old sonora

a shallow river valley cries

The summer left her without forgiveness

It’s mirrored in her children’s eyes

Prodigal sons and wayward daughters

Carry mandas that they might

Be delivered from the depths of darkness

And born again by candle light

And born again by candle light

Verse3

Blisters on my feet wooden rosary

I felt them in my pocket as I ran

A bullet in the night, a Federales' light

San Francisco do you understand

Tell Him that I made the journey and tell Him that my heart is true

. . . key change

I’d like His blessing of forgiveness before the angels send it through

And I will know that I am clean now and I will dance and the band will play

In the old out to cantina cups will runneth over the ancient clay

And if I should fall to temptation when I return to the evil throws

From Nogales to Magdalena as a two time beggar I will go where I know I can be forgiven

The broken heart of Mexico

The broken heart of Mexico

The broken heart of Mexico
