Mexican Army Tab

Joseph Arthur – (I Donated Myself to the) Mexican Army

I like this song a lot and it’s a breeze to play. Have fun with it, I saw him play it on 
video so I thought I would tab this puppy out. Enjoy!

Standard, no Capo

Intro: 

                              
I donated myself to the mexican  army
                                          
We were ten thousand guns shooting into the  night
                                      
Turning screams into sand and sand into  blood
                                   
And murdering darkness with fire and  light

                                  
 I don't know where we're going from here
                 
I'm just following orders
                                 
 I don't know how we'll conquer the king
                
This ain't my revolution

                                        
Out in the field there's no such thing as  mercy
                                        
We bloom through the night into flowers of  death
                                
"I don't believe anything that I've  said"
                                    
Jesus Christ was heard saying under his  breath

                                  
 I don't know where we're going from here
                 
I'm just following orders
                                 
 I don't know how we'll conquer the king
                
This ain't my revolution


                              
I donated myself to the mexican  army
                              
I gave all my love to a Mexican  whore
                                   
I gave her my dreams and I gave her my money
                            
I buried my family   under her floor

                                  
 I don't know where we're going from here
                 
I'm just following orders
                                 
 I don't know how we'll conquer the king
                
This ain't my revolution
