E
I hear mariachi static on my radio
                                B7
And the tubes, they glow in the dark

And Iʼm there with you in Ensenada
                     E
And Iʼm here in echo park

     A
Carmelita, hold me tighter
   E                A
I think Iʼm sinking down
        E                 B7
And Iʼm all strung out on heroin
                    E
On the outskirts of town

       E
Well I pawned my Smith and Wesson
                      B7
And I went to meet my man

He hangs out down on ElDorado Street
                      E
At the county chicken stand

     A
Carmelita, hold me tighter
   E                A
I think Iʼm sinking down
        E                 B7
And Iʼm all strung out on heroin
                    E
On the outskirts of town

         E
Well Iʼm sitting here playing Russian Roulette
                      B7
With my pearl handled gun

The county wonʼt give me any more Methadone
                              E
And they cut off your welfare check

     A
Carmelita, hold me tighter
   E                A
I think Iʼm sinking down
        E                 B7
And Iʼm all strung out on heroin
                    E
On the outskirts of town

     A
Carmelita, hold me tighter
   E                A
I think Iʼm sinking down
        E                 B7
And Iʼm all strung out on heroin
                    E
On the outskirts of town
