[Verse]
G D
Oh Mexico all the time
Bm Em G D
Dreamin' all about Acapulco and a sweet thing on my mind
G D
Mogadishu sunrise low above the sea
Bm Em G D
All of those lawyers in California won't bring her back to me
Am D Am D
Back to me back to me
G C G
Oh Mercenary Girl
G C Am D
Of all the lowdown places in the world
Am D
To be stuck inside of a phone booth
G C
Hangin' on the end of a line
F D
While this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind
G D
Oh Mary Mary I think you're fine
Bm Em G D
'Cause you can mix a margarita from a bottle of turpentine
G D
Just between noon and midnight that's when the battle rages on
Bm Em G
Mama I just gotta make one more call and I'll be here with you all
D
night long
Am D Am D
All night long all night long
G C G
Oh Mercenary Girl
G C Am D
Of all the lowdown places in the world
Am D
To be livin' in another city
G C
Comin' from another time
Am D
I know it's a cold cruel world
G C
But your eyes look soft and kind
F E
And this civil war keeps ragin' in my mind
A D A
Oh Mercenary Girl...
