There's a tangerine sunset

I was a shadow of myself

One more Tecate and I'll be

Closer to where I need to be

Six Mexican beers between

wish you were here and wish you well

You know these dark-haired senoritas
They sure know how to treat ya'
Ain't sure what they're sayin'

but I'm hangin' on every word
With every sip I get a little bit closer
To forgettin' and gettin' over
Dm7 Em
That memory that followed me down
C
here to heaven on earth

Closer to where I need to be

you were here and wish you well
