Heat Wave chords by Irving Berlin

Intro: Verse

   Am             G         Em7   D9   Am
A heat wave blew right into town last week
E    Am             G    Em7  D9     Am
She came from the island of  Martinique
     C           F           Dm7      C
The can-can she dances will make you fry
    C           F         Fdim    E
The can-can is really the reason why

Melody

We're having a heat wave
   F#m     E           E7/6   E
A tropical heat wave,
     A           G/B   A7    D          D9 Bm5-/7
The temperatures rising, it isn't surprising
     A        F#m  E   A
She certainly can can-can
E     A        D9    A       A D9 A
She started a heat wave
   F#m          E           E7/13  E
By letting her seat wave
     A    G/B  A7       D        D9 Bm5-/7
In such a way that the customers say that
     A        F#m  E   A
She certainly can can-can

Bridge
D  Em7 Em7/9 Em7 D           Em7    D
Gee,     her anatomy made the mercury
A       E        A   E
Jump to ninetythree, yes sir
E     A        D9    A       A D9 A
Were having a heat wave
   F#m     E           E7/13   E
A tropical heat wave
     A           G/B   A7           D     D9  Bm5-/7
The way that she moves that thermometer proves
          A        F#m  E   A
That she certainly can can-can
