EVANGELINA
Hoyt Axton 1975
AGnd I dream in the mEmorning, D that she brings me wGater;
GAnd I dream in the evAening, A7 that she brings me wDine. D7
Just a poor man's dauGghter, C from Porta Pen~Gasco;
EvangeDlina, D7 Old MexGico.
GThere's a great hot deEmsert, D South of MexiGcalli;
GIf you don't have waAter, A7 you'd better not Dgo. D7
Tequilla won't gGet you, C across that deGsert;
to EvangeDlina, D7 in Old MexGico.
(CHORUS)
And the F#mFire I feel for the Fwoman I love, Is dCriving me iGnsane;
knowing she's waDiting, D7 and I can't get tGhere.
F#mGod only knows that I rFack my brain to Ctry to find a Gway,
to reach that woDman, D7 in old MexGico.
GAnd I met a kEmind man, D he guarded the BGorder;
GHe said you don't need paApers, A7 I'll let you Dgo. D7
I can tell that you lGove her, C by the look in your eGyes now;
She's the rose of the Ddesert, D7 in old MexGico.
(CHORUS)
And the F#mFire I feel for the wFoman I love, Is dCriving me inGsane;
knowing she's wDaiting, D7 and I can't get thGere.
F#mGod only knows that I rFack my brain to tCry to find a Gway,
to reach that wDoman, D7 in old MexGico.
AGnd I dream in the mEmorning, D that she brings me wGater;
AGnd I dream in the eAvening, A7 that she brings me wDine. D7
Just a poor man's daGughter, C from Porta Pen~Gasco;
South of the BDorder, D7 in old MexGico.
EvangeDlina, D7 I miss you Cso. I miss you Gso.
