A 
Mexicali Rose, stop crying 
                                 E7 
I'll come back to you some sunny day 
                                  Bm7  E7 
Every night you know that I'll be pi - ning 
                              A 
Every hour of year while I'm away 
 

 
                             E7     A 
Dry those big brown eyes and smile, dear 
                 A7                     D  F# Bm 
Banish all those tears and please don't sigh 
D            Dm        A    F#7 
Kiss me once again and hold me 
B7       E7        A 
Mexicali Rose, goodbye 
 

 
                                     E7 
Mexicali Rose, I'm leaving, don't be blue 
                                     A 
Mexicali Rose, stop grieving, I love you 
                                             D 
When the dove of love is winging through the blue 
                            A     F#7 D    G#m  E7 
All the castles you've been build-ing will come true

                             E7     A 
Dry those big brown eyes and smile, dear 
                 A7                     D  F# Bm 
Banish all those tears and please don't sigh 
D            Dm        A    F#7 
Kiss me once again and hold me 
B7       E7        A 
Mexicali Rose, goodbye
