(Chorus)
I had one [C]smooth shot of 3 [D]fingers tequila
[G]Just to soften up the [C]edge
[C]Two hours later we were [D]mixin’ margaritas
[Em]And throwin’ ca[D]ution to the w[C]ind
Singin’ "O[C]h no, he[D]re we go ag[G]ain."
[G]Someone stole my [D]keys one n[Em]ight in M[C]exico
And I was [G]stranded there in [D]Boy’s Town with [C]nowhere left to go
So I [G]stumbled into this [D]bar & s[Em]at down in the [C]back
When [G]out of the blue [D]she appeared like an [C]angel dressed in black
(repeat chorus)
She said her name was Alma, at least that’s the one she used
And she knew of a place that didn’t water down their booze
So we slipped out the back door & she led the way
Down the alley to an eight by twelve apartment where she stayed
(repeat chorus)
When the sun comes up in Mexico it does not make a sound
I was recovering on the patio when Miss Alma came around
I could have found a locksmith & been on my way
But she said more with just one smile so I stayed another day
(repeat chorus)
