Would you sing it for us?

Love in the hot [E] afternoon.
From somewhere outside I [A] hear the street [E] vendor cry, fillet gumbo.
From my window I see him
[A] going [E] down the street and he don't know that she fell right [C#m] to sleep
[E] in the damp [C#m] tangled sheets [E] so soon.
Love [B] in the hot
[E] afternoon.
[B] [C#m]
[B] Now the bourbon street lady
[A] sleeps [E] like a baby in the shadows.
[G#m] [C#m]
[B] She was near to me,
[A] full of [E] mystery.
But now I know that she's [C#m] just a girl [E] and I'm [C#m] just a guy [E] in love.
Fall in love [B] in the hot [E] afternoon.

Fall in love [B] in the hot
[E] afternoon.
