Carmelita  Gg Allin




    I hear [E]mariachi static on the radio
    and the tubes they glow in the [B7]dark.

And I'm there with her in Encinada
    when I'm here in Echo [E]Park


CHORUS:

    Carme[A]lita, hold me tighter
    I [E]think I'm sinkin [A]down.
    And I'm [E]all strung-out on [B7]heroin
    on the out--skirts of [E]town.

    Well I [E]pawned my Smith and Wesson
    and I went to meet my [B7]man.
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
    by the Pioneer Chicken [E]stand.


(Chorus)

    Well I'm [E]sittin' here playin' solitaire
    with my pearl handled [B7]deck.

The county won't give me no more methadone
    and they cut off your welfare [E]check.


(Chorus)

(Chorus)
