Verse 1-
[C]Woke up at eight, started the 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]we stopped along the [F]way
[Am]on a beach in the sun, on a[F] beautiful day
Chorus-
[Am] Our [F]boats col[C]lide, we'd [D/Am]feel the [F]breeze
We'd [Am]stay a[F]float and [C]make the [D/Am]most of [F]everything

Verse 2-
[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 serve us as reminders
[Am]never trust a [F]man with the [Am]food, change of clothes, and a [F]drink in his hand
Chorus-
[Am] Our [F]boats col[G]lide, we'd [D/Am]feel the [F]breeze
We'd [Am]stay a[F]float and [G]make the [D/Am]most of [F]everything
The [Am]sun would [F]set, the [G]stars would [D/Am]shine
the [Am]trees would [F]shake, we'd [G]all feel [D/Am]fine
Let's [Am]take the [F]moon and [G]make it [D/Am]shine for [F]everyone
Bridge-
[G]We laughed away the sunburn
[F]as we laughed away the [C]day
[G]What we lost means nothing
[F/Dm]for the memories will stay...
Verse 3-
[C]Caught the last bus with no time to linger
[G]the driver seemed to be missing a finger
[Am]I turned and looked [F]away to the [Am]bus, gravel road and a [F]beautiful day
Chorus-
[Am] Our [F]boats col[G]lide, we'd [D/Am]feel the [F]breeze
We'd [Am]stay a[F]float and [G]make the [D/Am]most of [F]everything
The [Am]sun would [F]set, the [G]stars would [D/Am]shine
the [Am]trees would [F]shake, we'd [G]all feel [D/Am]fine
Let's [Am]take the [F]moon and [G]make it [D/Am]shine for [F]everyone
Let's [Am]take the [F]moon and [G]make it [D/Am]shine for [F]everyone
