Mexican Home by Josh Ritter
Mexican Home
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:1st fret
A D
Last night it got so hot, I swear
A D
Couldn't hardly breathe
A E
And heat lightning burnt the sky
A E7
Like alcohol
A D
I sat on the porch without my shoes
A D
And I watched the clouds roll by
A
As the headlights raced
E A
To the corner of the kitchen wall
D A
Mama dear, your boy is here
D A
Far across the sea
D A
Looking for that sacred core
E7 E
That burns inside of me
A
And I feel a storm
D
All wet and warm
A D
Not ten miles away
A E A
Approaching my Mexican home
A D
Oh my God, I cried, it's so hot inside
A D
You could die in your living room
A
Take a fan from the window
E A E7
Prop the door back with a broom
A D
And the cuckoo clock has died of shock
A D
And the windows feel no pane
A
The air's as still
E A
As the throttle of a funeral train
D A
Mama dear, your boy is here
D A
Far across the sea
D A
Looking for that sacred core
E7 E
That burns inside of me
A
And I feel the storm
D
And it's wet and warm
A D
Not ten miles away
A E A
Approaching my Mexican home
A - D - A - D - A - E - A x2
A D
And my father died on the porch outside
A D
Was an August afternoon
A
I drank Bourbon and cried
E A E7
With a friend by the light and the moon
A D
So it's hurry, hurry, step right up
A D
It's a matter of life or death
A
Oh, the sun is going down
E A
And the moon is just holding its breath
D A
Mama dear, your boy is here
D A
Far across the sea
D A
Looking for that sacred core
E7 E
That burns inside of me
A
When I feel a storm
D
And it's wet and warm
A D
Not ten miles away
A E A E7
Approaching my Mexican home
A E A E7
Approaching my Mexican home
A E A
Approaching my Mexican home
