[Verse 1]

G     Bm              A
Ever since you went away
G              Bm           A
The sun hasn't been out to shine
G                     Bm                     A
And clouds they been dropping their blues on me
G            Bm          A
And rainy day blues are mine

[Chorus]
            E         G       D
And I don't care how far you roam
          A           G        D
Just as long as you come back home
          A          E   E F F# G
With those words of iron
G              D
Forged by the fire
        A          G      D
In the heart of a lonely man

N.C.
I've been wanting to tell you

[Verse 2]
          A           G        D              A
That its rained every day since you've been away
G          Bm    A
Clouds are crying and I'm surviving
                G           Bm      A
Thinking about you down in old mexico
                    G           Bm      A
I'm thinking about you down in old mexico

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
G                Bm                     A
I know that the rain it doesn't last forever
G                Bm           A
And seasons they keep rolling on
G                   Bm                      A
And absence doesn't make every heart grown fonder
     G             Bm                   A
The sun shines so bright in the mexican sky

[Chorus]
            E         G       D
And I don't care how far you roam
         E           G          D
I don't care if you never come home
          A         E    E F F# G
With those words of iron
               D
Forged by the fire
       A          G       D
In the heart of a lonely man

N.C.
I've been wanting to tell you

[Verse 4]
         A            G        D             A
That its rained every day that you've been away
G          Bm    A
Clouds are crying and I'm surving
                G           Bm       A
Thinking about you down in old mexico
                   G           Bm       A
I'm thinking about you down in old mexico
