Intro
C# F# G# C# F# C# G#
[Verse 1]
C# F#
Shotgun with tin roofs, the air sits more than it moves
G# C#
Newspaper hits the front door, Nicky wakes in the front room
C# F#
He's packed his Mitsubishi with the itchy upholstery
G# C# C#7
He's going to Austin to his sister's, she's got an open room
F# C#
For the way his ass wanders won't make wives of your daughters
C# G#
Pensacola 1978
C# F#
It was over a bag of Lebanese hash
G# C# F# C# G#
That Nick met Joe, went back to his house laid down for a smoke
[Verse 2]
C# F#
Nick was just 20 and Joe was near 40
G# C#
But the first man to hold Nick without secrecy
C# F#
They'd go to Hippie Hollow and fuck on Joe's sailboat
G# C# C#7
Go round in his limo, Nick insisted he drove
F# C#
In purple pants and high heels, Nick wrote hot checks and closed deals
C# G#
Joe designed the insides of Austin's fine homes
C# F#
Ah but love is a migrant, it's movement is constant
G# C# C#7
With Nick, and Joe's wouldn't stay
F# C#
He said "Baby, I'm just the first one in your life full of good love
C# G#
And save for some hurt what's our consequence to pay
C# F#
Time never went wasted, stood still in some places
G# C#
And when it heals you, a friend I'll remain"
[Interlude]
C# F# G# C# F# C# G#
[Verse 3]
C# F#
Shotgun with shingled roofs, the air sits more than it moves
G# C#
Nick sits on his corner in New Orleans, he's just turned 60
C# F#
C# call on the homephone, the voice of Joe
G# C# C#7
Saying "Nicky, my liver, it's not gonna hold"
F# C#
So Nick makes up the guest bed and hires a house chef
C# G#
Says "Joe, you won't be going in any old home"
C# F#
And late one spring evening, two lovers lay sleeping
G# C# F# C#
Down the hall from each other, they listen to each other breathing
