From somewhere outside

             A            E
I hear the street vendor cry,

From my window I see him

Going down the street

[Pre-Chorus]
          E             C#m
That she fell right to sleep

        E            C#m       E
In the damp tangled sheets so soon

       E           B        E
After love in the hot afternoon

Now the Bourbon street lady

  A            E
Sleeps like a baby in the shadows

         B          A            E
She was new to me, full of mystery
But now I know (But I know) [Pre-Chorus]
      E           C#m
That she's just a girl

     E         C#m        E
And I'm just a guy, in a room

         E           B        E
Fall in love in the hot afternoon
[Instrumental] E D A E D A E [Verse]
        E                            
We got high in the park 

      A              E
This morning and we sat, without talkin'

      E
Then we came back here

        A           E
In the heat of the day, tired of walkin'
[Pre-Chorus]
       E         C#m
Where under her breath

     E           C#m     E
She hummed to herself a tune

    E           B        E
Of love in the hot afternoon
