To tell me that she's tired of all of them
Am C G
She says 'Baby I've been thinking about a trailer by the sea
Am C D
We can go to Mexico: you, the cat, and me
Em D C
We drink tequila and look for seashells
Em D C
Now doesn't that sound sweet?
Em D C
Jessie, you always do this
D C D C D
Every time I get back on my feet
CHORUS:
G C G C
Jessie, paint your pictures, about how it's gonna be

G C G C
But tell me all about our little trailer by the sea
