Play this 8 times then start singing
(Keep playing this riff)

The air was more than human 
and the heat was more than hungry 
and the cars were square and spitting diesel fumes
(On fumes play an Em Chord on the 7th Fret- my hands are too small to be able to play that chord so I just play it normally- much easier and sounds fine... when the chord is being played it has an electric guitar playing a short note- just slap your guitar in place of it...)

Boars were running wild because
there big and mean and sacred
and the children were playing cricket with no shoes
(On shoes play an Em Chord on the 7th fret)

(Another guitar plays here.. but here are the chords)
         A
The next morning we woke up man
to a seven hour drive
         C   
and there we were stuck in Port Blair
where boats break and children stare

Chorus:
          G                               D9
And there were so many fewer questions 
           Em                    D                             C            Dm         A             Chorus x 2
when stars were still just the holes to heaven hm....

(Play main riff for these lines)
Disembarking from the port 
with no mistakes of any sort
moving south the engine running smooth
(On smooth play an Em Chord on 7th fret)
(Play main riff for these lines)
Officials were quite friendly once we
drowned them with out sweet talk
and bribed them with out cigarrettes and booze
(On booze play an Em Chord on 7th fret)
          
          A
The next morning we woke up man 
with the sunrise to the right 
C
moving back to Port Blair
Were boats break and children stare

Chorus:
          G                               D9
And there were so many fewer questions 
           Em                    D                             C            Dm         A             Chorus x 2
when stars were still just the holes to heaven hm....

(Then play main riff for about 8 times then fade away)
