HOTTER THAN MOJAVE IN MY HEART (Iris DeMent)
--------------------------------------------
[On "Austin City Limits," she had a capo on the fourth fret.  The
 recording sounds like it's on the third.]
[Play bass runs between D & G if you can, and between G & G between
 sections (the bass goes G-D-E-F#-G).]
[Each chord is one fast measure.]
