On the morning you [E] went away
[A] The air was humid and the sky was clay
I had boiled [E] peanuts for breakfast Cairo, [A] Georgia
[Bm] [C#m]
[A] [E]
[A] The air was [F#m] bad, my face was wetter
The [A] big flowers along the western [C#m] window
Made me feel better
I [A] turned the air conditioner [Em] on
[E]
[A] Found the note on scented stationery
You were [D] long gone
[A] I had boiled peanuts [E] for breakfast [A] Cairo, Georgia
[C#m] [Bm] [C#m]
[A] [D] [C#m]
[A] I popped the flap off [D] the aluminum can
[A] Let the brine slide down [E] my fingers
Man, it [A] was hot, [D] it was warm on my skin
[A] But I felt the cold glass [D] look shone in
[A] I had boiled peanuts [E] for breakfast [A] Cairo, Georgia
