Evangelina

EVANGELINA Hoyt Axton 1975 G Em D G And I dream in the morning, that she brings me water; G A A7 D D7 And I dream in the evening, that she brings me wine. G C G Just a poor man?s daughter, from Porta Pen~asco; D D7 G Evangelina, Old Mexico. G Em D G There?s a great hot desert, South of Mexicalli; G A A7 D D7 If you don?t have water, you?d better not go. G C G Tequilla won?t get you, across that desert; D D7 G to Evangelina, in Old Mexico. (CHORUS) F#m F C G And the Fire I feel for the woman I love, Is driving me insane; D D7 G knowing she?s waiting, and I can?t get there. F#m F C G God only knows that I rack my brain to try to find a way, D D7 G to reach that woman, in old Mexico. G Em D G And I met a kind man, he guarded the Border; G A A7 D D7 He said you don?t need papers, I?ll let you go. G C G I can tell that you love her, by the look in your eyes now; D D7 G She?s the rose of the desert, in old Mexico. (CHORUS) F#m F C G And the Fire I feel for the woman I love, Is driving me insane; D D7 G knowing she?s waiting, and I can?t get there. F#m F C G God only knows that I rack my brain to try to find a way, D D7 G to reach that woman, in old Mexico. G Em D G And I dream in the morning, that she brings me water; G A A7 D D7 And I dream in the evening, that she brings me wine. G C G Just a poor man?s daughter, from Porta Pen~asco; D D7 G South of the Border, in old Mexico. D D7 C G Evangelina, I miss you so. I miss you so.
