Intro:

C  F  C  F  C  G  C

C  F  C  F  C  G  C




                    F
It got so hot, last night, I swear

C                  F
You couldnt hardly breathe

     C                   G        
Heat lightning burnt the sky like 

C
alcohol

  C                F
I sat on the porch without my shoes

      C                     F
And I watched the cars roll by

       C
As the headlights raced

       G                     C
To the corner of the kitchen wall.

Chorus:

F         C
Mama dear Your boy is here

G              C
Far across the sea

F                C
Waiting for That sacred core

                     G
That burns inside of me

      C
And I feel a storm

    F
All wet and warm

    C         F
Not ten miles away

C             G        C
Approaching My mexican home.



(Repeat Intro)




   C                 F
My god! I cried, its so hot inside

          C                 F
You could die in the living room

         C
Take the fan from the window

G                         C
Prop the door back with a broom

    C                F
The cuckoo clock has died of shock

        C               F
And the windows feel no pane

    C                    G        
The airs as still As the throttle 

             C
on a funeral train.




(Chorus)



(Reapeat Intro)




   C                  F
My father died on the porch outside

      C           F
On an august afternoon

         C
I sipped bourbon and cried

       G                          
With a friend by the light of the 

C
moon

       C             F
So its hurry! hurry! step right up

      C                 F
Its a matter of life or death

    C
The sun is going down

        G                       
And the moon is just holding its 

 C
breath.
