From: David Wagner (wagner@mindspring.com) HOT JAVA this is a really cool song that REM played a lot during their 1995 monster tour. they introduced the band during this song most of the time. unless you (or someone you know) have a bootleg from the tour with this song on it, or have an extremely rare cd that only you know about, you'll probably have a really hard time finding a copy of this song. this transcription is according to the 11/21/95 show. this song has a real old-1920's country feel to it; i think it was originally by floyd cranmer, but i may be wrong... intro: Bm (strum pattern: down, quickly 7 times, then...) D--0-0--0-2-4-5 verse: (4 beats per chord, unless otherwise noted) G G G D G G7 G (2 beats) Em (2b) C(1b) D(1b) hot java, goodbye dixie cup hey neighbor (peter?), do you have a cup of sugar i can borrow? bridge: Bm Em Bm Em Am D A(strum pattern: down down, down down down) D let's hear it for luscious jackson!!!
