[N] [E]
[A] It's [E] raining on the West Coast, snowing in Topeka, a weatherman says there's ice for old [B] Tennessee.
There's [A] a flood out in [B] California, [E] and a drought way [A] down in Texas, [B] and in Maine the fog's
so thick that you [E] can't see.
But [B] the sun [E] shines bright in [A] Acapulco, and there's [B] no snow in [E] Omari.
There's no ice down in [A] Nogales.
I [B] say, oh Lord, there's gotta be a [E] better way.
I see a loser in my mirror, got a devil in my brain, and the woman I've been loving,
she [B] moved on.
She [A] left lonesome in my [B] bedroom, and [E] dirty dishes in my [A] sink.
Guess [B] she didn't like the words to my country [E] song.
But the sun shines bright in [A] Acapulco, and there's [B] no snow in Omari.
[E]
There's no ice down in [A] Nogales.
I [B] say, oh Lord, there's gotta be a [E] better way.
I'll mail a check for my kids to Joanie, buy a backpack and a hat, get a map that shows
all the highways ahead and [B] south.
[A] I got no friends [B] to call, there [E] ain't nobody left [A] at all.
[B] I'm gonna be a-banging and not down [E] and out.
But [B] the sun [E] shines bright in [A] Acapulco, and there's [B] no snow in Omari.
[E]
There's no ice down in [A] Nogales.
I [B] say, oh Lord, there's gotta [E] be a better way.
[B] But the sun [E] shines bright in [A] Acapulco, and [B] there's no snow in Omari.
[E]
[B] There's [E] no ice down in [A] Nogales.
