Tim McGraw - That's Why God Made Mexico

From "Tim McGraw And The Dancehall Doctors"
(James T. Slater)

INTRO:  [G]   [D]   [Am7]   [C]

[G]Margie said [D]Roy you ain't [F]listening to [C]me
[G]And I got a [D]whole lot more to [F]say  [C]  [G]
Roy just [D]crossed the floor and [F]picked up his car [C]keys
[D#]And she ain't seen or [D]heard from him to [G]this day

CHORUS:
[G]And that's why God made [C]Mexico [D]  [G]
[G]A place where we can [C]lay low  [D]  [Em]
And the [G]Cuervo goes down [C]nice and slow
And the [G]warm wind blows [G/Bb]
[Am7]That's why [D]God made [G]Mexico

[G]And Betty fixed [D]Joe dinner every [F]night half past [C]six
[G]Cause that's when he'd [D]roll through that [F]door [C]  [G]
Cause sixteen [D]years and not a [F]thank you from his [C]lips
[D#]She don't [D]fix him dinner no [G]more

CHORUS

[Em]Cause life is sweet in a [A]border town
[D]You learn to let your [B]hair down
And you [C]don't make [G/B]trouble,
[Am7] you learn to [D]dance the fan[G]dango [B]
[Em]You change your name, and you [A]change your face
[D]Get used to beans, and [B]chili paste
And you [C]learn to [G/B]live and [Am7]love life [D]in the [G]slow lane

Last Chorus:
[G]And that's why God made [C]Mexico [D]  [G]
[G]A place where we can [C]lay low [D]  [Em]
Maybe [G]Monterrey or [C]Acapulco
Anywhere the [G]warm winds blow, [G/Bb] don't ya know
[Am7]That's why [D]God made [Bm]Mexic[Em]o--[Am7]o [D]
[NC]That's why God made...made Mexico

OUTRO:  [G]  [D]  [F]  [G]
