(ver. 1)
Calexico
[Intro]

Am C G G
Am C G
 
[Verse 1]
                 G                   Am        C
The last time we met was down at the tap room
G            G                     Am        C
  Drinkin' Mezcal and tears in our eyes7
D               D               G        C
  You sang me a song sweet as a monsoon
D            D           Em   Em   D  Dsus2
  Blowin' in    from the South
 
[Chorus 1]
G          G             Am    C
  Hear the bells ringin' out
G         G                  Am    C
  Let 'em ring on New Year's Day
 
[Verse 2]
G              G             Am       C
  I sat on the hill near the mission
G              G                     Am      C
  Where lovers meet and when poppies bloom
D                D                 G             C
  I followed the ranchers rambling down Broadway
D         D                        G       C
  Sellin' crops on the side of the road
D                  D                  Em   Em
  Their heart's in Sonora whenever it rains
        D         D
And wherever they roam
 
[Chorus 2]
G           G                  Am    C
  Take this charm and dry your tears
G           G                    Am    C
  Won't you wear it to ease your mind?
G          G             Am    C
  Hear the bells ringin' out
G         G                  Am    C
  Let 'em ring on New Year's Day

[Bridge]
D                D                Em   Em
  Hear the radio blarin' a sad corrido
F                F               Em    Em
  "La tierra del sol suspiro por verte
F             Am              C
  Quisiera llorar, quisiera morrir"
            Em          Am     Am
Come this November's Procession
  C            Em                    Am     Am
Mezcal on a Sunday with tears in our eyes
C                        Em                     Am     Am
  'Cause it's foolish to laugh and pointless to cry
C                Em     D#       C        D                     D      D F
  About some old photos buried inside the cracked and crumblin' walls
 
[Chorus 3]
G           G                  Am    C
  Take this charm and dry your tears
G           G                    Am    C
  Won't you wear it to ease your mind?
G        G                     Am      C
  Take a breath to soothe your sorrows
G               G                 Am          C
  Until they're gone, gone as the years fade away
G          G             Am    C
  Hear the bells ringin' out
G         G                  Am    C
  Let 'em ring on New Year's Day
