[Intro]
Em7 C

[Verse 1]
G                                        Em7
 I remember the thirtyfive sweet goodbyes
C                       D
 When you put me on the Wolverine
        G
Up to Annandale
It was still September
                                   Em7
When your daddy was quite surprised
C                     D
 To find you with the working girls
           G
In the county jail

[Pre-Chorus]
G     C
 I was smoking with the boys upstairs
      D
When I heard about the whole affair
       Gmaj7 Em
I said oh    no

[Chorus]
Gmaj7       Em         C
William and Mary won't do, now
       D                 Am7
Well I did not think the girl
         Bm7 Em
Could be so  cruel
        D           Am7
And I'm never going back
      Bm7 G
To my old  school

[Verse 2]
G                                  Em7
 Oleanders growing outside her door
C                   D
 Soon they're gonna be in bloom
        G
Up in Annandale
I can't stand her
                         Em7
Doing what she did before
C              D
 Living like a gypsy queen
        G
In a fairy tale

[Pre-Chorus]
G      C
 Well I hear the whistle but I can't go
         D
I'm gonna take her down to Mexico
         Gmaj7 Em
She said whoa  no

[Chorus]
Gmaj7  Em         C
Guadalajara won't do, now
       D                 Am7
Well I did not think the girl
         Bm7 Em
Could be so  cruel
        D           Am7
And I'm never going back
      Bm7 G
To my old  school

[Verse 3]
G                               Em7
 California tumbles into the sea
C               D
 That'll be the day I go
          G
Back to Annandale
Tried to warn you
                         Em7
About Chino and Daddy Gee
C                    D
 But I can't seem to get to you
              G
Through the U.S. Mail

[Pre-Chorus]
G      C
 Well I hear the whistle but I can't go
         D
I'm gonna take her down to Mexico
         Gmaj7 Em
She said oh    no

[Chorus]
Gmaj7  Em         C

Could be so  cruel
        D           Am7
And I'm never going back
      Bm7 G
