Playboys Of The Southwestern World [G] - Blake Shelton [Intro] [G] [C] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G] [D] Verse 1: This is a song about best friends - - [G] John Roy was [C] a boy I knew since [G] he was three and [D] I was two [G] Grew up two little [C] houses down from [D] me The [G] only bad apples on [C] our family tree Kinda [G] ripened and rottened in [D] our puberty [G] Two kindred spirits, [C] bound by des[D]tiny. Well, now [Em] I was smart but I [D] lacked ambition, [C] Johnny was wild and [G] no inhibition was [C] about like [G] mixin' [Am] fire and [Am] gasoline [D] and he said, |[Chorus] |[G] "Hey, [C] Romeo, [G] let's go down to [D] Mexico |[G] Chase senoritas, drink [C] ourselves silly, |Show them [G] Mexican girls a couple [D] real hillbillys. |Got a [G] pocket full of cash and that [C] old Ford truck, |[G] Fuzzy cat hangin from the [D] mirror hook. |Said [C] don't you [G] know all those [Am] little brown eyed [D] girls |Want playboys of the south[G]western world." |La [C] la la la la la [G] la la la la la la [D] la |[G] Sha la [C] la la la la [G] la la la la la la [D] la Verse 2: [G] Along around our [C] 18th year, Found [G] two airplane tickets to the [D] hell outta here. Got [G] scholarships to some [C] small town school in [D] Texas. We learned to [G] drink Sangria's til the [C] dawn's early light, Eat [G] Ranchero's and throw [D] up all night, And [G] tell those daddy's [C] girls we were majorin' in the [D] rodeo. Aw, but my [Em] favorite memory in [D] school that fall Was the [C] night John Roy came runnin' [G] down in the hall Wearin no[C]thing but [G] cowboy [Am] boots and a big somb[D]rero and he was yellin' [Chorus] Verse 3: And I [C] said we had a little [G] change in plans, Like when [C] Paul McCartney got [G] busted in Japan. And I [C] said we got [G] waylaid when we set [Am] foot on Mexican [D] soil. You see, the [G] borderman guard with the fumanchu [C] mustache Kinda [G] stumbled upon John's pocket of American [D] cash. He said "[G] Doin' a little funny [C] business in Mexcio, [D] Amigo?" And [Em] all I could think about was savin' [D] my own tail When he [C] mentioned 10 years in a [G] Mexican jail So I [C] pointed at [G] John Roy and [Am] said "It's all [Am] his...now please let me [D] go. It was your idea, genius. I was just layin' there in bed when you said.." |[Chorus] |"[G] Hey, [C] Romeo, [G] let's go down to [D] Mexico |[G] Chase senoritas, drink [C] ourselves silly, |Show them [G] Mexican girls a couple [D] real hillbillys. |Got a [G] pocket full of cash and that [C] old Ford truck, |[G] Fuzzy cat hangin from the [D] mirror hook. |Said [C] don't you [G] know all those [Am] little brown eyed [D] girls |Want playboys of the south [G], well from the southwestern world. Outro: [G] Ah, we're still best friends...temporary cell mates.
