A augmentedA heat wave blew right into town last week
E MajorE  A minorAm       G+G  E minor 7Em7 D9D9   A minorAm
She came from the island of Martinique
   C majorC      FF      Dm7Dm7   C majorC
The can-can she dances will make you fry
  C majorC      FF     FdimFdim  E MajorE
The can-can is really the reason why

Melody
E MajorE   A augmentedA    D9D9  A augmentedA    A augmentedA D9D9 A augmentedA
We're having a heat wave
  F# minorF#m   E MajorE      E7/6  E MajorE
A augmentedA tropical heat wave,
   A augmentedA      G/BG/B  A7A7  D MajorD     D9D9 Bm5-/7
The temperatures rising, it isn't surprising
   A augmentedA    F# minorF#m E MajorE  A augmentedA
She certainly can can-can
E MajorE   A augmentedA    D9D9  A augmentedA    A augmentedA D9D9 A augmentedA
She started a heat wave
  F# minorF#m     E MajorE      E7/13 E MajorE
By letting her seat wave
   A augmentedA  G/BG/B A7A7    D MajorD    D9D9 Bm5-/7
In such a way that the customers say that
   A augmentedA    F# minorF#m E MajorE  A augmentedA
She certainly can can-can

Bridge

Gee,   her anatomy made the mercury
A augmentedA    E MajorE    A augmentedA  E MajorE
Jump to ninetythree, yes sir
E MajorE   A augmentedA    D9D9  A augmentedA    A augmentedA D9D9 A augmentedA
Were having a heat wave
  F# minorF#m   E MajorE      E7/13  E MajorE
A augmentedA tropical heat wave
   A augmentedA      G/BG/B  A7A7      D MajorD   D9D9 Bm5-/7
The way that she moves that thermometer proves
     A augmentedA    F# minorF#m E MajorE  A augmentedA
That she certainly can can-can
