The Free Mexican Air Force

G   C

[Verse 1]
C                                 
in the Morelos Mountains 
                     G
campesinos are planting their fields
G                                 
Where the ghost of Zapata rides a 
horse that can still outrun the 
C
wheel
C           C7                   
High in the sky above, and clear 
       F   Dm
out of sight
 G                             
It's the Free Mexican Air Force 
        C
flyin' tonight

C                                 
In the City of Angels, a cowboy is
             G
 cooling his heels
G                                 
Remembering that God gave us herbs
                       C
 and the fruits of the fields
C              C7          
But a criminal law that makes 
                            F  Dm
outlaws of those seeking light
G                                  
Made the Free Mexican Air Force -- 
G
Mescalito riding his white horse --
G                                 
Yeah, the Free Mexican Air Force 
         C
is flyin' tonight!

                  G       D7   G  
 Flying so high - yi - hiyeeeee!

[Verse 2]
C                                 
How strange that an innocent herb 
                G
causes money to burn
G                              
They'll jail you or kill you for 
                             C
making those rich fat cats squirm

C                           C7   
They're the fools who make rules 
with no difference between wrong or 
F   Dm
right
 G                             
That's why the Free Mexican Air 
                 C
Force is flyin' tonight

C                                 
Uncle Sam in his misery put a nix 
                 G
on the fields of Guerrero
G                                 
Sayin', "Shoot down all gringos 
                          C
and wetbacks who dare wear 
sombreros!"
C                           C7   
Either run for your life, 
                    F   Dm
surrender, or stand up and fight --
G                                 
Or join the Free Mexican Air Force

G                                 
Yeah, the Free Mexican Air Force

is flying tonight!

Flying so high - yi - hiyeeeee! ...

[Verse 3]

C                                 
It is not marijuana destroying the
               G
 minds of the young
G                       G7       
But confusion continued for power
                  C
 and greed in all forms
C7                                
Well, the borders of evil will 
                      F  Dm
fall to the smugglers of light!
G                                 
We're the Free Mexican Air Force 
                C
and we're flyin' tonight!
C                                 
In San Antonio, they tell me that 
                    G
power and money are one
G                  G7            
They can buy us or sell you to 
                      C
keep you afraid, on the run
7                                   
But no one can stop us! My vision is
            F  Dm
 clearly in sight!
G                                 
And the Free Mexican Air Force -- 
G
Mescalito riding his white horse --
G                                 
Yeah, the Free Mexican Air Force 
         C
is flyin' tonight!

Flying so high - yi - hiyeeeee! ...

[Verse 4]
C                                 
We were smoking colitas while 
                     G
other were loading their guns
G                       
Blowing smoke from their 
G7                                
six-shooters, spinning their 
        C
barrels for fun
C7                            F  
Contrabandistas, --- banditos alike

G                                 
We're the Free Mexican Air Force 
                C
and we're flyin' tonight!

C                                 
High in the hills we are 
        G
harvesting sweet sensimillia
G                          G7    
Yeah, the law wants it all 'cause
 they know that the wild weed can 
     C
free ya
C7                                
And freedom for us is a prison for
               F  Dm
 the rulers of might!
G                             
That's why the Free Mexican Air

Yeah, the Free Texican Air Force
