G I know a freaky young lady C Name of Cocaine Katie G C She makes my temperature freeze G She's got a blood red powder C When she gives a shout F A She'll bring you to your knees Well we were being clever playing God games forever She said she only meant to please But I'm someone's brother Got a father and a mother You know I'm going to have to leave Chorus: Em South of the border C I think you oughta Em South of the border C I think you oughta G C F C 'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave G C F C To a place where you can breathe G C F And you know there's no reprieve There'll be tears on leaving but there won't be no grieving 'Cause a city soon forgets To me it's magic, to the landlord it's tragic He's got another room to let There'll be the same old faces in the same old places Where my youth was well misspent But I tow the line and move the time To a town called "No Regrets" Chorus: South of the border I think you oughta South of the border I think you oughta 'Cause you know you're gonna have to leave To a place where you can breathe And you know there's no reprieve 'Cause you know you're gonna have to leave To a place where you can breathe And you know there's no reprieve You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA C Em F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
