Verse 1:
C C
Woke up at eight, started the fire
G G
had a few drinks, we all felt inspired
Am Am
jumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens
F F
the water was bitter cold
C C
Laid in the raft till it started moving
G G
the current just sang, the song was so soothing
Am Am F F
we stopped along the way
Am Am F F
on a beach in the sun, on a beautiful day


Chorus:
Am Am F F G G D D F F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am Am F F G G D D F F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything

Verse 2:
C C
By noon we had swung the ropes in the woods
G G
missed all danger, snakes, and the floods
Am Am
burnt by the rays and next to our legs,
F F
the water so bitter cold
C C
Lunch had been saved along with the lighters
G G
wet cigarettes serve us as reminders
Am Am F F Am Am F F
never trust a man with the food, change of clothes, and a drink in his hand

Chorus: Extended
Am Am F F G G D D F F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am Am F F G G D D F F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
Am Am F F G G D D
The sun would set, the stars would shine
Am Am F F G G D D
the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine
Am Am F F G G D D F F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone

Bridge:
G G
We laughed away the sunburn
F F C C
as we laughed away the day
G G
What we lost means nothing
F F-bridge
for the memories will stay...

Verse 3:
C C
Caught the last bus with no time to linger

the driver seemed to be missing a finger

I turned and looked away to the bus, gravel road and a beautiful day

the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine
