G Ab (lead into the verse)


[VERSE 1]

A                C#m
Feeling low down, sinking slow
       D                     B
Like a half ton Chevy with a heavy load
    A                                E
But I slept like a baby beneath the stars last night
           G            G Ab
And it was out of sight.
A                          C#m
I've been misunderstanding every road
          D                              B
Thinking every strech of highway's got a pot of gold
   A                    E
I count my blessings on my right hand
          G
And I'm a lucky man

G Ab

[VERSE 2]

A                C#m
Feeling tested, feeling mean
  D                     B
I'm too tired of runnin' from the Big Machine
 A                                E
The Big Machine takes me to my baby's place
   G            G  Ab
So I can see your face
A                C#m
I break my back for a fifth of gin
  D                     B
Then I weep and wail about the shape I'm in
 A                                E
I got some money for a rainy day
 G            G  Ab
And its on its way



[CHORUS]

C      G      F   C
Arriba arriba los Corozones
C                    G      F       C
Get out of bed Pueto Rico's on the telephone
    E                            Am
The streets of Old San Juan they beckon
          G                  C
There's a sweet life there I reckon
       G# Am             F        F#  G
So I'll set sail for the coast with the most

[VERSE 3]

A                C#m
Feeling low down sinking slow
  D                     B
But my bags are all packed and I'm ready to go
 A                                E
I don't need pesos cuz I know they will
 G            G Ab
Take my dollar bill.
A                C#m
One little place on this big 'ol Earth
  D                     B
Has got me singing like a siren of a sweet rebirth
 A                                E
As sure as the devil's in the deep blue sea
 G            G Ab
There's a place for me
