G+G       C majorC    G+G      C majorC   G+G     D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 Tonight it's hot down here, I can almost smell the rain

 And I can almost taste the fear, behind your name
G+G          C majorC G+G      C majorC      G+G   D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 Fans turning on the ceiling, I feel sticky as a chili dog
G+G             C majorC G+G   B minorBm       D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
White boys howling in the evening, on that hollow log


Pre-Chorus
E minorEm          C majorC          G/BG/B   D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 Tall tales down the river, Say we aim to bury the truth
    E minorEm        C majorC      G+G     D MajorD
But the right hand just delivered, The devil in a suit

    C majorC   G/BG/B  A minorAm  G+G  D MajorD   Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
And he talks big in Whitewash County

Talks sweet as su-gar cane

   C majorC   C minorCm     G+G
Got a future filled with rain

G+G         C majorC   G+G       C majorC        G+G  D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 Bug buzzing in an empty glass, fiddle scratching some lazy tune
G+G              C majorC    G+G      B minorBm    D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 We're just some place that history passed, new dust, new broom
G+G          C majorC    G+G        C majorC   G+G    D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 And it's a high hot buttered moon, he's got a shiny new wax face
G+G             C majorC     G+G     B minorBm    D MajorD  Dsus4Dsus4 D MajorD
 Swears the South's gonna rise again soon, all over the place
