verse 1 

G                                       C 
They're coming across the border by the thousands everyday 
G                                C 
Looking for a better life in the good old U.S.A 
      G                             C 
Well, everybody's talking about the alians invading 
G                                 C 
While I'm saving every dime for a Mexican vacation 
Em             D 
Me, I'm headed your way 
Em          D 
Hasta luego, Jose 


G               C 
You say ?hola?, I?ll say ?hi? 
        G                           C 
 When I pass you at the border slap me a high five 
     G                              C 
 You better pack a poncho ?cause it sure gets cold up here 
 G                            C 
 Me, I'm headed south for hot women and cheap beer 
 Em                    D 
 Here?s the keys to my Chevrolet 
         Em                     D 
 You can have the house and the bills I pay 
 Em                      D 
 Welcome to the good ol? U.S.A. 
C                D        G 
 I'm headed your way, Jose 
 (Cuervo that is, lil? sunshine, some margaritas, 
 Cabo San Lucas, maybe go see Chichinitza, I love that word) 

verse 2
 
G                                  C 
Up here we work our asses off just tryin? to get ahead 
 G                            C 
 But you can't spend a dollar if you're worked yourself to death 
 G                           C 
 From what I hear you way of life is an afternoon siesta 
 G                                    C 
 Then back to work for a little while for an all night long fiesta 
 Em             D 
 Me, I'm headed your way 
Em                        D 
 Well sounds to me like a pretty fair trade 
  
 
G               C 
You say ?hola?, I?ll say ?hi? 
        G                           C 
 When I pass you at the border slap me a high five 
     G                              C 
 You better pack a poncho ?cause it sure gets cold up here 
 G                            C 
 Me, I'm headed south for hot women and cheap beer 
 Em                    D 
 Here?s the keys to my Chevrolet 
         Em                     D 
 You can have the house and the bills I pay 
 Em                      D 
 Welcome to the good ol? U.S.A. 
C                D        G 
 I'm headed your way, Jose 
 (White sandy beaches, pesos and jalapenos, 
 Palm trees, ocean breeze, ah man, Dos Equis) 
  
 
G               C 
You say ?hola?, I?ll say ?hi?

 When I pass you at the border slap me a high five

 You can have the house and the bills I pay 
 Em                      D 
 Me, I'm kickin' back in the Mexican shade 
C                D        G 
 I'm headed your way, Jose
