Rodeo Or Mexico chords by Garth Brooks

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)


Verse 1:
                D               G      C         D
          For a change I headed south across the border
                  G           C         G       D
          For the pesos and a different horse to ride
                  D               G   C    D
          I'd be back to make the rodeo in Waco
                        G                                A
          But that was long before I saw them dark brown eyes



Verse 2:
                 D                   G       C       D
          Oh her long black hair and English bad and broken
              G             C     G            D
          Her body said the words she couldn't find
                D            G        C       D
          As I hung on every word she left unspoken
                  G                             A
          Oh the question started leaning on my mind

Chorus:
              D  G     D
          Rodeo ooo or Mexico
               C               G           A
          They both can keep a cowboy satisfied
              D  G      D
          Rodeo  ooo or Mexico
               C          G            A
          The only way I know how to decide
                                  D
          Is just get on and ride

           D G Bm A A



Verse 3:

             D                  G           C       D
          We danced all night beneath that sheet of cotton
                   G                 C         G       D
          And you just don't tell a girl like that goodbye
                  D                 G   C     D
          But the cowboy life ain't easily forgotten
                 G                                     A
          Though lying there I couldn' help but wonder why



Chorus:

              D  G     D
          Rodeo ooo or Mexico
               C               G           A
          They both can keep a cowboy satisfied
              D  G      D
          Rodeo  ooo or Mexico
               C          G            A
          The only way I know how to decide
                                  D
          Is just get on and ride

           D G Bm A A

           D G Bm A A Let me only ride
           D G Bm A A Let's ride


Solo:
           Bm G D A Bm G D A G D/G G



Verse 4:
                   D                 G      C       D
          Well the morning found the answer dawning on me
               G              C     G        D
          As I woke up to the sharp end of a knife
                      D                G     C       D
          Well he was screaming at the woman hanging on me
                  G                              A
          Does anybody know the Spanish word for wife?



Chorus:
              D  G     D
          Rodeo ooo or Mexico
               C               G           A
          They both can keep a cowboy satisfied
              D   G     D
          Rodeo  ooo or Mexico
               C         G             A
          The only way I know how to decide
                                  D
          Is just get on and ride
