Yeah, I can see it now
Cm(ma7)                                                   Cm
The distant red neon shivered in the heat
                                               Cm(ma7)                     Fm
I was feeling like a stranger in a strange land
                                                                                   Fm(ma7)
You know where people play games with the night
Fm                                          Fm(ma7)
God, it was too hot to sleep
                                                             Cm
I followed the sound of a jukebox coming from up the levee
                          Cm(ma7)
All of a sudden I could hear somebody whistling
 Cm
From right behind me
                     Cm(ma7)
I turned around and she said
Fm

I said "I don't know, the wind just kind of pushed me this way."
                Cm                      Cm(ma7)
She said "Hang the rich."

The fields are empty, abandoned '59 Chevy
                                                                         Fm
Laying in the back seat listening to Little Willie John

Yea, that's when time stood still

You know, I think I'm gonna go down to Madam X

Oh this is sure stirring up some ghosts for me

Is not to be afraid of it."

But you'll learn to love it later."
