C
It was Cinco de Mayo
Em
Pillow case on his head
C
No more breathing time
Em
An ambulance sped
C
It sped round every corner
Em
Calling out his name
Chorus
Am
Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
G
Sat and watched in the summer corn row
Am
Ate icecream in a desert dream
G
Got love in father seeing you
Am
Too hot inside to hot outside
G Am
Lazy days when you said just go for a ride
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
G
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade
C, Em, C, Em
C Em
Tim and tina were my parents' names
C Em
They got engaged they were inflamed
C Em
Seduced by the lie of butterflies
C
How they shimmer, how they glimmer
Em
Those butterflies
C Em
We seven kids, we almost died
C
Nearly put to death
Em
But lightning strike
C
Instead there was hot pink
Em
Flashes in the sky
C
We climb the rocks in snowing rain
Em C
In search of magic power
Em
To heal our mother's pain
C, Em, C, Em
Chorus
Am
Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
G
Sat and watched in the summer corn row
Am
Ate icecream in a desert dream
G
Got love in father seeing you
Am
Too hot inside to hot outside
G Am
Lazy days when you said just go for a ride
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
G
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade
Repeat Chorus
