 Subject: THIS MY YEAR FOR MEXICO
 THIS IS MY YEAR FOR MEXICO
 Recorded by Crystal Gayle
 Written by V. Matthews
 [G] You no longer notice [C] if I'm wearing per-[G] fume
 I seldom hear a lover's word from [D] you
 Your [G] attention's wrapped up [C] in the mornin' [G] paper
 And I feel a restless [D] yearn for somethin' [G] new.
 
 We used to whisper love across the nighttime
 Now we never whisper nor recall
 Our love is left upon the shelf of winter
 Where the sunlight never touches it at all.
 
 CHORUS
 It's a [D] habit for us to be to-[G] geth-[G7] er
 We [C] sit and watch the dead'ning [D] shadows [G] go
 Ev'ry day last year I [C] left for Cali-[G] fornia
 This is my [D] year for Mexi-[G] co.
 
 Your back is turned to me while you are leaving
 I close my eyes while I pretend to go
 >From the road I hear the sound of passing traffic
 Some of them are bound for Mexico.
 
 CHORUS
