It was Cinco de Mayo
[Em]Pillow case on his head
[C]No more breathing time
[Em]An ambulance sped
[C]It sped round every corner
[Em]Calling out his name
Chorus
[Am]Shot a rabbit from the [D]back seat window
[G]Sat and watched in the [Em]summer corn row
[Am]Ate icecream in a [D]desert dream
[G]Got lost in f[Em]ather seeing you
[Am]Too hot inside to [D]hot outside
[G]Lazy days when you sai[Em]d let's go for a ride
[Am]We'll sail on [D]Spirit Lake,
[G]Me, my pappy, and [Em]his lemonade
Tim and tina were my parents' names
They got engaged they were inflamed
Seduced by the lie of butterflies
How they shimmer, how they glimmer
Those butterflies
We seven kids, we almost died
Nearly put to death
But lightning strike
Instead there was hot pink
Flashes in the sky
We climb the rocks in snowing rain
In search of magic power
To heal our mother's pain
Chorus x2
[Am]Shot a rabbit from the [D]back seat window
