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 C
Heat lightning burnt the sky like 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 C
The airs as still As the throttle 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 C
With a friend by the light of the 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 C
And the moon is just holding its breath.
(Chorus)

I first heard this song 42 years after John wrote and recorded it. Something about the way he sings and plays these simple chords touches that sacred chord in me. |
