The chords used in this song are mostly barre chords, but you can use pretty
much any variation of each chord that you want and it still sounds great.
C#m Ab A B
She came in on the red-eye to Dallas-Fort Worth.
E Ab A B
All the way from sunny Taipei.
C#m Ab A B
Skin the color of a walnut shell,
E Ab A B
And a baseball cap holding down her black hair.
A B
And she came here after midnight.
E A
The hot weather made her feel right at home.
E A
Come on in, we haven't slept for weeks.
E A B
Drink some of this, it'll put color in your cheeks.
C#m Ab A B
He drove in from Mexicali no worse for wear.
E Ab A B
Money to burn, time to kill, but
C#m Ab A B
Five minutes looking in his eyes and
E Ab A B A
We all knew he was broken pretty bad, so we gave him what we had.
B
We cleared a space for him to sleep in,
E
And we let the silence that's our trademark
A
Make its presence felt.
E A
Come on in, we haven't slept for weeks.
E A B
Drink some of this, it'll put color in your cheeks.

C#m Ab A B E
They came in by the dozens, walking or crawling.
Ab A
Some were bright-eyed,
B
Some were dead on their feet.
E Ab A B E
And they came from Zimbabwe, Or from Soviet Georgia,
Ab A B A
East Saint Louis, or from Paris, or they lived across the street.
B
But they came, and when they'd finally made it here,
E A
It was the least that we could do to make our welcome clear.
E A
Come on in, we haven't slept for weeks.
E A B
Drink some of this, this'll put color in your cheeks.
