Verse:
E A
Here comes another song about Mexico
C#m
I just can't help myself
B
I lost my old lady
Got my lures, got my bobbers, now I'm gonna go
E
Got off in the wrong direction
A
Found a hooker and lost my erection
C#m B
So I had to lie in the letter to the boys back home
Chorus:
A
Well the good guys and the bad guys
E B
Well they never work past noon around here
A F#m
They sit side to side in cantinas, talk to senoritas
E
And drink warm beer
(Riff 1)
Second verse:
E A
Here comes the same old verse about Mexico
C#m
We just can't help ourselves
B
We lost our old ladies
Got our lures, got our bobbers, now we're gonna go
E
Got off in the wrong direction
A
Found some hookers and lost our erections
C#m B
So we had to lie in the letter to the boys back home
Chorus:
A
Well the good guys and the bad guys
E B
Well they never work past noon around here
A F#m
They sit side to side in Cantinas, talk to senoritas
E
And drink warm beer
(Riff 1)

Haven't figured it out yet, but here are the chords:
E-A-E-A-C#m-A-B-E
Chorus:
A
Yeah the good guys and the bad guys
E B
Well they never work past noon around here
A F#m
They sit side to side in Cantinas, talk to senoritas
E
And drink warm beer
