[F] Thank you so much for listening.
I had an excellent [Dm] time.
Thank you for taking the time [D] to listen to this play,
Me and [E] Your Family.
Now this [F#m] song is, this is one that [A] I did with [D#] Elizabeth Cook a couple nights ago
[E] on the website for the [N] David Letterman Late Night Television Show.
So if you like the way I sing this song,
you can look on the Late Night Television Show website for Mr.
David Letterman and they'll have this song
on there.
You can just watch it and look at the [F#] description and it'll be so very [Bm] good.
[E]
Thanks again, [B] by the way.

[F#m] [A]
[E] Your breath is hard as [B] kerosene.
[A]
Once your mama's a lonely boy, [E] but her favorite one [F#m] is him.
She [C#m] began to cry when he [A] said [B] goodbye.
[A] He sank into a [C#m]
dream, [A] [E]
thought you was a bad boy.
[B]
His horse was fast, his father's shoe [A] running over his thigh outside his knee.
[E] They're off to God's world [B] a few.
[A]
I told his match, you know [E] the woman's business down [A] in Mexico.
But nobody heard [B]
[F#m] [A] her, that's who they go.
[E] [A]
Now the fair lady said, [E] hey, glad [A] you're ready.
And slip [B] away,
[A] I'm trying to silence the cold.
[E]
Lefty kicks in the blue, [B]
all night long he used to.
[A]
Dust, parched and dipped down the side.
[E]
Headed up in Laffey's [B] land.
[A]
They laid bone on [E] Laffey, [A] split foot Ohio.
And where he bred to [B] go,
[A] ain't nobody known.
Now the fair lady said, [E]
hey, glad you're [A] [C#m] ready.
[A] [B]
[A] And slip away, I'm trying to silence the cold.
[E] For it's still how Macho fell.
[B] Lefty's living in a cheap hotel.
[A]
Desert's quiet, people's cold.
[E] And so the story ends with hope.
[B] [A]
Macho's region bears its [E] true.
Same with you, [A] forget it.
You know they did what they had [B] to do.
[A] Let me skip on.
Now the fair lady said, [E] hey, glad [A]
[C#m] you're ready.
[A] And slip [B] away, [A] I'm trying to silence the cold.
You ready, fair lady, said, [E] hey, glad you're [A] ready.
They only live so [B]
long, [A]
I'm trying to silence the cold.
