6    -8   -7  -5* 6  -9
His gaze swept ov-er me 
-8… -7  6     5   -4
Like a slow, hot wind
6     -8    -7  -5*  6   -9   -8
Some-days, it's too warm to fight
-7 6     5   -4
A slow, hot wind
10    -9  8   -8
There in the shade
8   -9 -9*    7*
Like a cool drink
7     -9…
Wait-ing...
7  -7*  8    9*   -10 -9* 9*  8…
He sat with slow fire in his eyes
-6    6    -8…
Just wait-ing...
6     -8    -7  -5*   6  -9  -8
Some-days, it's too warm to fight
-7 6     6    5   -4
A slow, slow hot wind.

There in the shade
Like a cool drink
Waiting...
He sat with slow fire in his eyes
Just waiting...
Somedays, it's too warm to fight
A slow, hot wind.

A slow...hot wind.
