Cross Canadian Ragweed - Carmelita Chords

Cross Canadian Ragweed - Carmelita


           E
    I hear mariachi static on my radio
                                    B7
    And the tubes they light up the dark.

    And I'm with her in Encinada
                    E
    Stuck in Echo Park

    CHORUS:

         A
    Carmelita, hold me tighter
      E                A
    I think I'm sinkin down.
            E                 B7
    And I'm all strung-out on heroin
                        E
    on the outskirts of town.

    Well I'm sittin' here playin' solitare
    With my pearl handled deck
    The county won't give me no more methadone
    And they cut off your welfare check.

    Chorus

    Well I pawned my Smith and Corona
    and I went down to meet my man.
    He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
    by the Pioneer Chicken stand.
