Song: Carmelita
Artist: GG Alin
Written By: Warren Zevon
Album: Carnival of Excess
Tabbed by Jason O. Kaveh
I hear [C]mariachi static on the radio
and the tubes they glow in the [G]dark.
And I'm there with her in Encinada
when I'm here in Echo [C]Park
CHORUS:
Carme[F]lita, hold me tighter
I [C]think I'm sinkin' [F]down.
And I'm [C]all strung-out on [G]heroin
on the [G]out--skirts of [C]town.
Well I [C]pawned my Smith and Wesson
and I went to meet my [G]man.
He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
by the County(Pioneer) Chicken [C]stand.
(Chorus)
Well I'm [C]sittin' here playin' Russian roulette
with my pearl handled [G]gun.
The county won't give me no more methadone
and they cut off your welfare [C]check.
(Chorus)x2
