intro: D bm G D (2x)
[VERSE 1]
D bm
Please don’t tell me I can’t make it
G D
It aint gonna do me any good
bm
And please don’t offer me your modern method
G A
By fixing the carpets out of wood
D bm
From Nogales to Magdalena
G A
There are 60 miles of sacred road
D A
And the promise is made to those who venture
G dm
San Francisco lift your load
D bm G D
[VERSE 2]
In the land of old Sonora
A shallow river valley cries
The summer left her without forgiveness
It’s mirrored in her children’s eyes
Prodigle sons and wayward daughters
Carry mandalas that they made(1stchords.com)
He delivered from the debts of darkness
And born again by candlelight
And born again my candlelight
D bm G A
A D
Blisters on my feet
A bm
Wooden rosary
A D A
I fell them in my pocket as I ran
A D
A bullet in the night
A bm
A feather of his life
A D A
San Francisco do you understand
[VERSE 3]
Tell them that I’ve made the journey
And tell them that my heart is true
Not like his blessing or forgiveness
Before the angels send it through
E c#m
And I will know that I am clean know
A E
And I will dance and the band will play
E
And the old .......( c#m A E )
E c#m
And if I should fall to temptation
A E
Will I return to evil throws
E c#m
From Nogales to Magdalena
A E
As a two time beggar I will go
B c#m A E
And I know I can’t be forgiven the broken heart of Mexico

the lyrics are misheard: A BULLET IN THE NIGHT, A FEDERALES LIGHT (instead of A FEATHER ON HIS LIFE). Federales are mexican policemans.
