Ten Degrees and Getting Colder
[GORDON LIGHTFOOT]
Transcribed from Nanci Griffith's
"Other Voices, Other Rooms" CD

Capo: 3rd Fret

[G]
He was standing by the highway
[C] [G]
With a sign that says just Mother

When he heard a driver coming
[Am] [D]
About a half a mile away
[G]
So he held the sign up higher
[C] [G]
So no decent soul could miss it

It was ten degrees or colder
[D] [G]
Down by Boulder Dam that day

[G]
He was raised up in Milwaukee
[C] [G]
Though he never was that famous

He was just a road musician
[Am] [D]
To the taverns he would go
[G]
Singing songs about the rambling
[C] [G]
The loving girls and gambling

How the world fell on his shoulder
[D] [G]
Back in Boulder, I don't know

CHORUS
[C] [G]
And she told him she would take him
[D] [G]
For a ride in the morning sun
[C] [G]
Back in Boulder he had told her
[D] [G]
I don't know when I've had a better friend

[G]
Well it was out in Arizona
[C] [G]
And he heard the lady listening

To each word that he was saying
[Am] [D]
To each line that he would write
[G]
So he sat down by her table
[C] [G]
And they talked about the weather

Ninety eight point six and rising
[D] [G]
Down by Boulder Dam that night

[G]

Now he's traded off his Martin
[C] [G]
But his troubles are not over

His feet are almost frozen
[Am] [D]
And the sun is sinking low
[G]
Won't you listen to me brother
[C] [G]
If you ever loved your mother

Please pull off on the shoulder
[D] [G]
If you're going Milwaukee way

It's ten degrees and getting colder
[D] [G]
Down by Boulder Dam today
