C
Woke up at eight started a fire
G
had a few drinks, we all felt inspired
Am
jumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens
F
the water was bitter cold
C
Laid in the raft till it started moving
G
the current just sang, the song was so soothing
Am F
we stopped along the way
Am F
on a beach in the sun, on a beautiful day
Am F C D / Am F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am F C D / Am F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
C
By noon we had swung the ropes in the woods
G
missed all danger, snakes, and the floods
Am
burnt by the rays and next to our legs,
F
the water so bitter cold
C
Lunch had been saved along with the lighters
G
wet cigarettes served us as reminders
Am F Am
never trust a man with the food, change of clothes,
F
and a drink in his hand
Am F C D / Am F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am F C D / Am F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
Am F C D / Am
The sun would set, the stars would shine
Am F C D / Am
the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine
Am F C D / Am F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
G
We laughed away the sunburn
F C
as we laughed away the day
G
What we lost means nothing
F / Dm
for the memories will stay...
C
Caught the last bus with no time to linger
G
the driver seemed to be missing a finger
Am F Am
I turned and looked away to the bus,
F
gravel road and a beautiful day
Am F C D / Am F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am F C D / Am F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
Am F C D / Am
The sun would set, the stars would shine
Am F C D / Am
the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine
Am F C D / Am F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
Am F C D / Am F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
