Tequila Sheila — Bobby Bare

Chords and lyrics for Tequila Sheila by Bobby Bare (key of C).

Intro

[F] [C] [G7] [C]

Chorus 1

Won't you [C]pour me another tequila, Sheila.
Take off that red satin [G]dress.
[G]I crossed the border, and I beat the dealer,
for [G7]all the damn gold in [C]Juarez.
I [C]feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila.
And I got the [C7]pesos to [F]spend.
So [F]pour me another [C]tequila, [A7]Sheila,
and [D7]lay down and [G]love me [C]again.

Verse 1

[C]No, I can't tell you about it.
But don't mind my gun by the [G7]bed.
I [G7]feel kinda naked without it,
but it eases the fears in my [C]head.
Just [C]pass me the salt and the lemon,
then bend down and [C7]blow out the [F]light.
I [F]never have trusted the [C]women, [A7]Sheila,
but [D7]I'm gonna [G]trust you [C]tonight.

Chorus 2

You can [C]pour me another tequila, Sheila.
Take off that red satin [G]dress.
[G]I crossed the border, and I beat the dealer
for [G7]all the damn gold in [C]Juarez.
I [C]feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila,
I sure could [C7]use me a [F]friend
So [F]pour me another [C]tequila, [A7]Sheila,
and [D7]lay down and [G]love me [C]again.[D]

Verse 2

Oh, [D]Sheila, I'm hearin' your heartbeat,
but I'm hearing footsteps [A7]outside.
That [A7]old courtyard is crawlin' with damn Federales.
And Sheila, there ain't no place to [D]hide.
[D]Now I don't know who could have tipped 'em,
'cause nobody [D7]knew it but [G]you.
And [G]I can't make love to a [D]squealer, [B7]Sheila
So I [E7]guess there's just [A7]one thing to [D]do.

Chorus 3

You can [D]pour me another tequila, Sheila.
And I'm gonna put on your red satin [A7]dress.
[A7]You put on my clothes, and you go face the dealer
and Sheila, I wish you the [D]best.
I [D]feel like ol' Pancho Villa, Sheila.
I need a fast [D7]horse and a [G]friend.
So [G]pour me another [D]tequila [B7]Sheila,
and I'll [E7]ride for the [A7]border [D]again.
Yeah, [G]pour me another [D]tequila, [B7]Sheila,
and I'll [E7]ride for the [A7]border [D]again.
