Grasshopper

E                  A       E
400 miles down the Mexican coast
E                            A   
I'm two hundred dollars from 
       E
being flat broke
C#m                A       E
Surf Seven Sisters all day long
C#m                    A        E
Drinking mescal as the sun goes down

[Verse 2]
E                        A       
I was like a grasshopper sitting 
     E
on a vine
E                     A        E
Along come a senorita say your mind
C#m          A               E
Venga gringo where you gonna go?
C#m                          A   
You can stay with me just on down
     E
 the road

[Verse 3]
E                    A           
Kissing her lips and rolling on 
   E
the beach
E                       A    E
Baby stay here work for family
C#m                      A       
Down the coast there's a landing 
E
strip
   C#m                             
My brother's got a plane you could 
A        E
work for him

[Chorus]
B                       C#m
Oh lord let me live for one more day
A                      E
I'll be a good boy the rest of my 
days
B                     C#m
Oh lord if you get me out of this 
place
A                         E
I'll never stray from the straight 
and narrow way
B                      C#m
Oh lord if you give me one small 
sign
A                      E
I'll be a good boy the rest of my 
life

For the rest of my life

[Verse 4]
E                    A            
Fat grasshopper on a sweet potato 
E
vine
E                         A      
She saw me coming, saw me coming 
    E
for miles
C#m                 A      E
Gringo surfers from California
C#m           G#      A     E
They fly them down to Putanegra

[Verse 5]
E                       A        
Got a baby girl and she looks 
       E
like mom
E                      A       E
Black curly hair and a devil's smile
C#m                    A       E
Federales know what we take up north
C#m                       A       
Lord let me live 'til I'm old and 
E
grey

I'll be a good boy the rest of my 
days
B                     C#m
Oh lord if you get me out of this 
place
A                         E
I'll never stray from the straight 
and narrow way

For the rest of my life
