Intro:
[G] [C]
[G] [Dm] [G]

G                                  C
It got so hot last night, I swear, you couldn't hardly breathe
        G                Dm          G
Heat lightning burnt the sky like alcohol
G
I sat on the porch without my shoes
        C
And I watched the cars roll by
         G                     Dm                    G
As the headlights raced to the corner of the kitchen wall

Chorus:
 Dm                        G
Mama dear you boy is here. Far across the sea
  A7                              D7
Waiting for that sacred core that burns inside of me
      G                                 C
And I feel a storm all wet and warm not ten miles away
     G         Dm      G
Approaching my Mexican home

Instrumental:
[G] [C]

G                                             C
My God, I cried. It's so hot inside you could die in the living room
         G                            Dm               G
Take the fan from the window-prop the door open with a broom
G
Well, the cuckoo clock has died of shock
        C
And the windows feel no pane
    G                   Dm                      G
The air's as still as a throttle on a funeral train

Repeat Chorus:

     G                                      C
My father died on the porch outside on an August afternoon
          G                         Dm                       G
I sipped bourbon and cried with a friend by the light of the moon
G
So it's hurry hurry! Step right up
       C
It's a matter of life or death  
          G                        Dm                         G
Well, the sun's going down and the moon is just holding it's breath
