Capo: 3rd fret
STANDARD TUNING
Artist: Lyle Lovett
Song: Flyswatter/Ice Water Blues
Album: Joshua Judges Ruth
C9 G
Honey put down that flyswatter
C9 G
And pour me some ice water
C9 G
And would you bring me my hammer
C9 D
And could you find me some nails
C9 G
For soon I'll be going
C9 G
To work for this living
C9 G
And with you here to guide me
C9 G
Then I cannot fail
C9 G
C9 G
The morning it stumbles
C9 G
Right in through the window
C9 G
And this getting up early
C9 D
Gets old anyway
C9 G
And if you listen close dear
C9 G
The crying that you hear
C9 G
Is the nighttime lamenting
C9 G
The start of the day
C9 G
C9 G
And it's hotter than concrete
C9 G
In July in Houston
C9 G
And it'll get worse here
C9 D
Before it turns nice
C9 G
But old Tink's in the backyard
C9 G
And I swear that boy's so smart
C9 G
He's got everything ready
C9 G
So we'll be all right
C9 G
C9 G
So honey put down that flyswatter
C9 G
And pour me some ice water
C9 G
And though I'll soon be going
C9 D
Well I haven't gone yet
C9 G
So come stand here beside me
C9 G
And hold my hand gently
C9 G
And tell me do you remember
C9 G
The first time we met
C9 G
