E                                  B
That the last thing I’d see’d be the window bars
      A                   E
Of a (Southern?) American town
            E                                B
If you’d of told me that a year ago in New Orleans
       A                     E
I’d of laughed the cat house down


[Chorus]
         A                          E
Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down
   A                        C#m                  B                      E
Mosquito on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)


[Verse 2]
         E                                                    B
Well the boys went mango (huntin’?) and they ran through the (lines?)
           A           E
There in a Costa Rican town
         E                                             B
Oh, they must be eatin’ good and they’re drinking fine wine
        A             E
While I lay my burden down


[Chorus]
         A                          E
Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down
   A                         C#m                  B                      E
Mosquitos on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)


[Instrumental]
E     B       A   E
E     B       A   E


[Chorus]
         A                          E
Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down
   A                         C#m                  B                      E
Mosquitos on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)


[Verse 3]
         E                                                    B
Well the boys went mango (huntin’?) and they ran through the (lines?)
           A           E
There in a Costa Rican town
         E                                             B
Oh, they must be eatin’ good and they’re drinking fine wine
        A             E
While I lay my burden down


[Chorus]
         A                          E
Ain’t no musket ball or cannon shot laid my company down
   A                         C#m                  B                      A  E
Mosquitos on the lake, (took Indian jade, and the fever’s on my breath tonight?)
