C G
Oh Mexico all the time
Em Am C G
Dreamin' all about Acapulco and a sweet thing on my mind
C G
Mogadishu sunrise low above the sea
Em Am C G
All of those lawyers in California won't bring her back to me
Dm G Dm G
Back to me back to me
C F C
Oh Mercenary Girl
C F Dm G
Of all the lowdown places in the world
Dm G
To be stuck inside of a phone booth
C F
Hangin' on the end of a line
Bb G
While this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind
C G
Oh Mary Mary I think you're fine
Em Am C G
'Cause you can mix a margarita from a bottle of turpentine
C G
Just between noon and midnight that's when the battle rages on
Em Am C
Mama I just gotta make one more call and I'll be here with you all
G
night long
Dm G Dm G
All night long all night long

Oh Mercenary Girl
C F Dm G
Of all the lowdown places in the world
Dm G
To be livin' in another city
C F
Comin' from another time
Dm G
I know it's a cold cruel world
C F
But your eyes look soft and kind
Bb A
And this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind
