       G
Yeah I looked at my watch and it said a quarter to five
              C                   F/C  C
The headlines screamed that I was still alive
   F/C           C
I couldn't understand it
  F                   G    G/A    G/Bb    G/B    F/C    C
I thought I died last night

Oh I dreamed I'd been in a border town
In a little Catina that the boys had found
I was desperate to dance
Just to dig the local sounds

Dm7               G
When along came a señorita
Dm7                       G/F
She looked so good that I had to meet her
      C/G                   D/A            G/B         /A    /G    /F
I was ready to approach her with my English charm
         C     Bb       F/A Gm    F          Bb     G    G/A    G/Bb    G/B    F/C    C
When her brass knuckled boyfriend grabbed me by the arm

G    G/A    G/Bb    G/B    F/C    C

            A7                        D
And he said grow some funk of your own amigo
A7
Grow some funk of your own
D              Dsus4   D      Dsus4 D
We no like to with the gringo fight
          E7
But there might be a death in Mexico tonight
             A7                        D
If you can't grow some funk of your own amigo
A7
Grow some funk of your own
F#              B
Take my advice, take the next flight
    E7                                D
And grow your funk, grow your funk at home

Well I looked for support from the rest of my friends
For their vanishing trick they get ten out of ten
I knelt to pray
Just to see if he would comprehend
