Rodeo Or Mexico
Recorded by Garth Brooks
Written by Paul Kennerley, Bryan Kennedy, Garth Brooks

C                     F     A#7        C
For a change I headed south across the border
        F           A7#       F        C
For the pesos and a different horse to ride
                        F A#7    C
I'd be back to make the rodeo in Waco
             F                                 G7
But that was long before I saw them dark brown eyes

     C                   F       A#7     C
With long black hair and English bad and broken
    F             A#7       F        C
Her body said the words she couldn't find
                   F        A#7     C
As I hung on every word she left unspoken
    F                              G7
The question started leaning on my mind

    C  F    C           A#7             F           G7
Rodeo--o or Mexico they both can keep a cowboy satisfied
    C  F    C          A#7        F             G7
Rodeo--o or Mexico the only way I know how to decide
                      C
Is just to get on and ride

                      F          A#7      C
We danced all night beneath that sheet of cotton
        F                 A#7       F        C
And you just don't tell a girl like that goodbye
                          F   A#7   C
But the cowboy life ain't easily forgotten
             F                                G7
Though lying there I couldn't help but wonder why

repeat #3

                      F      A#7     C
The morning found the answer dawning on me
     F              A#7       F    C
As I woke up to the sharp end of a knife
                        F     A#7     C
He was screaming at the woman hanging on me
        F                              G7
Does anybody know the Spanish word for wife

repeat #3
