Well, you know what it's like
                     F/C
When you wake up in the morning and it's hard
         A
Standing up straight at attention
             F/C
Like the changing of the guard
  C
Or how it is in a porno shop
     Am
When you put your quarter in the slot

So nobody knows that you're hot

  C                           Am
Or late at night you're in home in bed all alone and it's cold out
       D
You put your hand where it's warm
                 F/G G

Im thinking about the time in my life
              F/C
When I first learned what crying was
  C
The first time I ever had to come face to face
     F/C
With what dying was
  C
The relatives gathered all in black
  Am
To mourn for my great aunt Juanita

When who comes through the door to pay her respects
     G    G7
But our cousin Conchitta

The tears in her eyes
                F/C
Only made them look even more spanish

As i watched her I could swear
                F
I could feel the floor under me vanish

So she goes to them all
               Am
Then she fin'ly comes over to me

And she kisses my cheek and I lower my eyes
    F/G   G
I can hardly believe what I see
   F           G7        F
Cause I'm looking down the front of her gown
      F7
And I can't, no I can't
