Intro:

C    D    F, riff

     C            D          
  By 8:30 AM the sun was so hot
F
  That it made me remember
  And I pulled on the jacket with the bars on the pocket and I
  Stood in front of the window
  The skin on my face has a memory all its own
  And it drinks in the pure heat, real slow

  I remember Lima, I remember the good life
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life
          C                     D
  And the window was ten feet high
                      F    (riff)
  And three feet wide
  Sunbeams bounce off the dark water
  And come through the clear glass, magnified
  Standing here in the house on Pacific Coast Highway
  Given to me by a friend whose name is no longer important,
  My conscience is clean
  And the feeling of power like thick red wine,
  And it's oh-nine-oh-five, military time

  I remember Lima, I remember the good life
  I remember Lima, I remember the good life
