[A] [G]
[A] [G] It was [Dm] a hot and sultry [G] day
[Dm] Some when in early [G] September
I don't [Dm] hardly remember [G] the day
[Dm] Just the way the sun beat [A] down
Upon the [Dm] bay, bay
[A] [Dm] I did not even need to [Em] know your name
It [Dm] was oh so plain to [G] see
That you had [Dm] eyes for me
[A] [Dm] Halfway open, halfway [G] closed
Half naked, eyes for [Dm] me, baby
It [G] was a [Dm] slow burning [Am] love [A] affair
Well, the [Dm] love affair
[G] A [Dm] slow burning [F] smoldering [A] love
If you [D] went out
[A] And like [Dm] the sun on the edge of the [Dm] western sky It died
[G] All [C] the lights of the city were close at hand
[Dm] I might just as well have been another man
You [F] might just as well have been another girl
[A] You might just as well have been another world
It was a slow burning love affair
Well, the [Dm] love affair
[G] [Dm] A slow burning smoldering [A] love
If you [Dm] went out
[G] And [Dm] like the sun on the edge of the western [A] sky [Dm] It died
[G] It [Dm] was a slow burning [A] love
[Dm]
[G] You [Dm] were smoking out there, baby
[A] Some [Dm] kind of hot
[G] It was [Dm] a slow [Am] burning love affair
Well, [Dm] the love affair
[A] [Dm] A slow burning smoldering [G] love
If you [Dm] went out

[Dm] It died
