The Gulf of Mexico

Intro: G C G C
G C
She cooks him ham and ho'cakes
G C
at five thirty every morn
G C
and she does the dishes
G C
and she irons his uniform
G C
And she thinks she might have loved him once,
G C
but that was so long ago
G C
and the rain pours down like a holy waterfall
G C
over the Gulf of Mexico
G C
The boardwalk's deserted
G C
and the beach is all closed down
G C
and the middle school punk rockers
G C
ride their skateboards through the town
G
And she looks back and she daydreams
C
about paintin' people she's never seen
G C
just to keep from bein' blue
G
and she gets home about a quarter 'till four
C
and she drives her brother to the liquor store
G C
on Ocean Avenue
G C
And I'm parked on the stateline
G C
on this cold November day
G C
and pretty soon I'll be a drivin' fool
G C
somewhere down this lost highway
G
and I here a voice from my soul's core
C
sayin' freedom's just a metaphor
G C
you got nowhere to go
G C
and the rain pours down like a holy waterfall
G C
over the Gulf of Mexico
G C
over the Gulf of Mexico
G C
over the Gulf of Mexico
That's about it.
git er done!
Uh you're missing a ton of D chords in there. For example on the line "And she thinks she might have loved him once..." the chords are D, C, G. This happens several other times in the song as well.
