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
