Evangelina Hoyt Axton
Intro: G
[G]And I dream in the [Em]morning, [D]she brings me water[G]
And I dream in the [A7]evening, she brings me [D]wine
Just a poor man's [G]daughter[C]
From Puerto Pe[G]nasco
Evange[D]lina in old Mexi[G]co
Verse
There's a great hot [Em]desert, [D]south of Mexi[G]cali
And if you don't have [A7]water, boy you better not [D]go
Tequila won't [G]get you[C]
Across that [G]desert
To Evange[D]lina in old Mexi[G]co
Chorus
And the [Bm]fire I feel for the [F]woman I love
Is [C]driving me in[G]sane
Knowing she's [D]waiting
[C]And I can't [G]get there
And [Bm]God only knows that I've [F]racked my brain
To [C]try and find a [G]way
To reach that [D]woman in old Mexi[G]co
Instrumental: G Em D G A7 D G C G D G
And I met a [Em]kind man, [D]he guarded the b[G]order
He said "you don't need [A7]papers I'll let you [D]go"
I can tell that you [G]love her[C]
By the look in your [G]eyes now
She's the rose of the [D]desert
In old Mexi[G]co
Chorus
And the [Bm]fire I feel for the [F]woman I love

To [C]try and find a [G]way
To reach that [D]woman in old Mexi[G]co

And I dream in the [A7]evening, she brings me [D]wine
Just a poor man's [G]daughter[C]
From Puerto Pe[G]nasco
South of the [D]Border, in old Mexi[G]co
Evange[D]lina I miss you [C]so
I miss you [G]so
