Magdalena
Capo 1st Fret
Intro:
Verse 1:
Please don’t tell me I can’t make it
It aint gunna do me any good
And please don’t offer me your modern methods
Of fixing the carve this out of wood
From Nogales to Magdalena there sixty miles of sacred road
And the promise is made to those who venture; San Francisco will lift your load
Verse 2:
In the land of old sonora
a shallow river valley cries
The summer left her without forgiveness
It’s mirrored in her children’s eyes
Prodigal sons and wayward daughters
Carry mandas that they might
Be delivered from the depths of darkness
And born again by candle light
And born again by candle light
Verse3:
Blisters on my feet wooden rosary
I felt them in my pocket as I ran
A bullet in the night, a Federales' light
San Francisco do you understand
Tell Him that I made the journey and tell Him that my heart is true
Am C D F . . . key change
I’d like His blessing of forgiveness before the angels send it through
And I will know that I am clean now and I will dance and the band will play
In the old out to cantina cups will runneth over the ancient clay
And if I should fall to temptation when I return to the evil throws
From Nogales to Magdalena as a two time beggar I will go where I know I can be forgiven
The broken heart of Mexico
The broken heart of Mexico
The broken heart of Mexico
