CIt was Cinco de Mayo
EmPillow case on his head
CNo more breathing time
EmAn ambulance sped
CIt sped round every corner
EmCalling out his name
Chorus
AmShot a rabbit from the Dback seat window
GSat and watched in the Emsummer corn row
AmAte icecream in a Ddesert dream
GGot lost in fEmather seeing you
AmToo hot inside to Dhot outside
GLazy days when you saiEmd let's go for a ride
AmWe'll sail on DSpirit Lake,
GMe, my pappy, and Emhis lemonade
Tim and tina were my parents' names
They got engaged they were inflamed
Seduced by the lie of butterflies
How they shimmer, how they glimmer
Those butterflies
We seven kids, we almost died
Nearly put to death
But lightning strike
Instead there was hot pink
Flashes in the sky
We climb the rocks in snowing rain
In search of magic power
To heal our mother's pain
Chorus x2
AmShot a rabbit from the Dback seat window
GSat and watched in the Emsummer corn row
AmAte icecream in a Ddesert dream
GGot lost in fEmather seeing you
AmToo hot inside to Dhot outside
GLazy days when you saiEmd let's go for a ride
AmWe'll sail on DSpirit Lake,
GMe, my pappy, and Emhis lemonade

It was Cinco de Mayo

Pillow case on his head

No more breathing time

An ambulance sped

It sped round every corner

Calling out his name

Chorus

Am D

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window

G Em

Sat and watched in the summer corn row

Am D

Ate icecream in a desert dream

G Em

Got lost in father seeing you

Am D

Too hot inside to hot outside

G Em

Lazy days when you said let's go for a ride

Am D

We'll sail on Spirit Lake,

G Em

Me, my pappy, and his lemonade

Tim and tina were my parents' names

They got engaged they were inflamed

Seduced by the lie of butterflies

How they shimmer, how they glimmer

Those butterflies

We seven kids, we almost died

Nearly put to death

But lightning strike

Instead there was hot pink

Flashes in the sky

We climb the rocks in snowing rain

In search of magic power

To heal our mother's pain

Chorus x2

Am D

Shot a rabbit from the back seat window

G Em

Sat and watched in the summer corn row

Am D

Ate icecream in a desert dream

G Em

Got lost in father seeing you

Am D

Too hot inside to hot outside

G Em

Lazy days when you said let's go for a ride

Am D

We'll sail on Spirit Lake,

G Em

Me, my pappy, and his lemonade
