Acapulco
Recorded by Johnny Duncan
Written by Larry Collins and Mary Leath

C
It's raining on the west coast snowing in Topeka
                                           G7
The weatherman says there's ice below Tennessee
          F                G7           C                   F
There's a flood out in California and a drought way down in Texas
       C                  G7                   C
And in Maine the fog's so thick that you can't see

                                F
But the sun shines bright in Acapulco
           G7               C
There's no snow in Old Monterey
                         F
There's no ice down in Nogales
         G7                             C
I say oh Lord there's gotta be a better way
 

I see a loser in my mirror got a devil in my brain
                                         G7
And the woman I've been loving she moved on
         F              G7                C            F
She left lonesome in my bedroom and dirty dishes in my sink
          C               G7                  C
Guess she didn't like the words to my country song

Repeat #2


I’ll mail a check for my kids to Joanie buy a backpack and a hat 
                                              G7
Get a map that shows all the highways heading south
      F             G7               C              F
I got no friends to call there ain’t nobody left at all
    C               G7              C
I’m gonna be up and in not down and out
 
Repeat #2 x2
