	G	C
	John Roy was a b	oy I knew

	G	D
	Since he was three and	I was two

	G	C	D
	Grew up two little ho	uses down from	me

	G	C
The o	nly two bad apples on our f	amily tree

	G	D
Kind of	ripened and rotted in our	puberty

	G	C	D
	Two kindred spirits b	ound by desti	ny

	Em	D
Well no	w I was smart, but I la	cked ambition

	C	G
J	ohnny was wild with no inh	ibition

	C	Am	D
Was	about like mixin'	fire and gasol	ine

And he'd say

	G	C
	Hey R	omeo

	G	D
	Let's go down to M	exico

	G	C
	Chase senoritas, drink o	urselves silly

	G	D
Show them	Mexican girls a couple r	eal hillbillies

	G	C
Got a	pocket full of cash and that	old Ford truck

	G	D
A f	uzzy cat hangin' from the	mirror for luck

	C	Am	D
Said d	on't you know all those	little brown-eyed g	irls

	G	C	G	D	G	C	G	D
Want playboys of the southw	estern world

	G	C
	Long around our e	ighteenth year

	G	D
We found	two airplane tickets the hell	out of here

	G	C	D
Got	scholarships to some	small town school in	Texas

	G	C
We l	earned to drink Sangrias 'till the d	awns early light

	G	D
Eat	eggs Rancheros and throw	up all night

	G	C	D
An	d tell those Daddy's girls we were ma	joring in a	rodeo

	Em	D
Ah, but my	favorite memory of sc	hool that fall

	C	G
Was the	night John Roy came runnin' d	own the hall

	C	Am	D
Wearin	nothin' but cowboy b	oots and a big som	brero

And he was yellin'

(Repeat Chorus)

	Am	Em
And I s	aid, we had a little ch	ange in plans

	C	G
Like when	Paul McCartney got b	usted in Japan

	C	Bm
And	I said we got w	aylaid

	Am	G	D
When	we set foot	on Mexican	soil

	G	C
You see the	boarder guard with the	Fu Manchu mustache

	G	D
Kind of st	umbled on John's pocket full of	American cash

He said

	G	C	D
	"Doin' a little funny	business in Mexico, A	migo"

	Em	D
But all I could t	hink about was savin' my own	tail

	C	G
When he	mentioned ten years in a	Mexican jail

	C	Bm	Am
So I	pointed to	John Roy and	said

	G	D
"It's all	his now please	let me go"

I mean it was your idea genius

I was just layin' there in bed

When you said

(Repeat Chorus)

End G C G D FADE OUT

Ah, we're still best friends

Temporary cell mates
