[Intro] C D F [Riff] [Verse 1]
     C            D
  By 8:30 AM the sun was so hot

F
  That it made me remember

        C            D
  And I pulled on the jacket with the bars on the pocket and I

F
  Stood in front of the window

      C            D
  The skin on my face has a memory all its own

         F
  And it drinks in the pure heat, real slow
[Chorus]
        C         D               F
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life

        C         D               F
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life
[Verse 2]
          C                     D
  And the window was ten feet high
F [Riff] And three feet wide
  C                      D
  Sunbeams bounce off the dark water

      F
  And come through the clear glass, magnified

           C                      D
  Standing here in the house on Pacific Coast Highway

  F                                        C
  Given to me by a friend whose name is no longer important,

D                   F
  My conscience is clean

          C                      D
  And the feeling of power like thick red wine,

           F
  And it's oh-nine-oh-five, military time
[Chorus]
        C         D               F
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life

        C         D               F
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life

        C         D               F
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life

        C         D               F
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life
[Outro] C D F x4
