Capo: 2
The key to this song is the capo. This is played capoed to the 2nd fret. There may still be a few incorrect notes, but root cords are dead on. I'm going to refer to cords by the position you are holding your hand, not by their name. The chord's actual name is a whole step higher. Chords Used: C (D): f#|-0-| C#|-1-| A |-0-| E |-2-| B |-3-| F#|-3-| G (A): I'm not completly sure about how he fingers this one, I just use the bass notes let the highs ring open. I think the High E kind of throws it off though so I don't play it. f#|---| C#|-0-| A |-0-| E |-0-| B |-2-| F#|-3-| Am (Bm): f#|-0-| C#|-1-| A |-2-| E |-2-| B |-0-| F#|-0-| F (G): Letting the high E string ring open is what makes the cord sound so good. Don't play it as an F bar chord. If you can figure out how to hit the 1st fret on the B and E strings, and let the High E ring open, then do it, but from what I can hear in the he doesn't do it, so neither do I. f#|-0-| C#|-1-| A |-2-| E |-3-| B |-3-| F#|-x-| D (E): Not 100% sure about how this is played because you only hear it for a tenth of a If you come up with something that sounds better, let me know f#|-0-| C#|-0-| A |-2-| E |-0-| B |-0-| F#|-x-| F-bridge: funky F used at the end of the bridge: f#|-1-| C#|-3-| A |-2-| E |-3-| B |-x-| F#|-x-| Intro: 8 measures + 2 measure transition.

CWoke up at eight, started the fire Ghad a few drinks, we all felt inspired Amjumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens Fthe water was bitter cold CLaid in the raft till it started moving Gthe current just sang, the song was so soothing Amwe stopped along the Fway Amon a beach in the sun, on aF beautiful day
Chorus:
Am Our Fboats colGlide, we'd Dfeel the Fbreeze We'd Amstay aFfloat and Gmake the Dmost of Feverything
Verse 2:
CBy noon we had swung the ropes in the woods Gmissed all danger, snakes, and the floods Amburnt by the rays and next to our legs, Fthe water so bitter cold CLunch had been saved along with the lighters Gwet cigarettes serve us as reminders Amnever trust a Fman with the Amfood, change of clothes, and a Fdrink in his hand
Chorus: Extended
Am Our Fboats colGlide, we'd Dfeel the Fbreeze We'd Amstay aFfloat and Gmake the Dmost of Feverything The Amsun would Fset, the Gstars would Dshine the Amtrees would Fshake, we'd Gall feel Dfine Let's Amtake the Fmoon and Gmake it Dshine for Feveryone
Bridge:
GWe laughed away the sunburn Fas we laughed away the Cday GWhat we lost means nothing F-bridge for the memories will stay...
Verse 3:
CCaught the last bus with no time to linger Gthe driver seemed to be missing a finger AmI turned and looked Faway to the Ambus, gravel road and a Fbeautiful day
Chorus:
Am Our Fboats colGlide, we'd Dfeel the Fbreeze We'd Amstay aFfloat and Gmake the Dmost of Feverything The Amsun would Fset, the Gstars would Dshine the Amtrees would Fshake, we'd Gall feel Dfine Let's Amtake the Fmoon and Gmake it Dshine for Feveryone Let's Amtake the Fmoon and Gmake it Dshine for Feveryone
