C G C F
In the town of Reynosa, there's a beautiful river
C G C
That shines in the Mexico sun
C G C F
There are boats and they cross from one side to the other
C G C
At dusk when the hot day is done
C G C F
From there to Acuna to Del Rio, Texas
C G C
Uvalde up through San Antone
C G C F
With the pesos I've saved up for years then I'll trade
C G C C7
For the chance to send dollars back home
[Chorus]
F C
Coyote, coyote, que hiciste cabron?
G C
Coyote, man what have you done?
F Fm C
You took all our money and left us to die
G C
In the heat of the South Texas sun
G C
Coyote, que hiciste cabron?
[Verse 2]
C G C F
He steps out of the shadows, he won't look in my eyes
C G C
His hand's out to take all I've got
C G C F
He says that he's smuggled a thousand good men
C G C
And he says that he's never been caught
C G C F
So with seventeen other, braceros like cattle
C G C
Packed in for that long final ride
C G C F
In the semi-truck crossing the border it's dark
C G C C7
And it's hot as an oven inside
[Chorus]
F C
Coyote, coyote, que hiciste cabron?
G C
Coyote, man what have you done?
F Fm C
You took all our money and left us to die
G C
In the heat of the South Texas sun
G C
Coyote, que hiciste cabron?
[Verse 3]
C G C F
The braceros are asking in whispers
C G C
Why the truck stopped in the heat of the day?
C G C F
At first sign of trouble, he's left us all there
C G C C7
By the road and he's walking away
[Chorus]
F C
Coyote, coyote, que hiciste cabron?
G C
Coyote, man what have you done?
F Fm C
You took all our money and left us to die
G C
In the heat of the South Texas sun
G C
Coyote, que hiciste cabron?
