So, the other version that's up here is too hard for me as a beginner, so I worked
an easier version for people who like me aren't hugely bothered about it being in
the right key, so long as we can play it.
Capo 4
[C]Me and my friend Dan are gonna [Em]get some beers and then
We?re gonna [F]go down to the [G]park and drink them [C]there
We'll [C]bask out in the sun, bring a [Em]guitar and play some songs
Call up our [F]friends and inv[G]ite them out to [Am]share
What might [Em]be the last [F]weekend of the [C]summer
Cause Sep[Dm]tember's getting colder as it [Am]goes
And we [F]haven't done [G]enough of this [C]simple [Em]kind of [Am]stuff
this year. It's [F]clear we're getting [G]older and it [C]shows
[C]Work weeks make us [Em]weary now and s[F]chool's a distant memory
It?s [G]easy to ask questions of our[C]selves,
[C]Like: where it is we're [Em]going now and [F]what we have to show
For all the [G]sunny days shut up in the [Am]shells
Of expec[Em]tations of our [F]ultimate [C]directions
And the [Dm]stations that we should have reached by [Am]now
When we [F]haven't read the [G]script and our [C]tender [Em]wings are [Am]clipped
And we're [F]scared we might be [G]letting someone [C]down
[C] [G] [F] [Dm]
[C] [G] [F] [Em] [Dm] [Em] [Dm]
[C]So we listen to these heartbreak songs [Em]when nothing?s really wrong
And we [F]smile when we're [G]asked and say we're [C]fine
[C]But we're drifting through our middle days, we're c[Em]reeping into middle age
[F]Setting in our [G]ways... But now it's [Am]time
To [Em]decide now its [F]time to draw [C]a line
In the [Dm]sand and ask what's more important [Am]than days like today
So grab some [F]beers [G]call your [C]friends and [Em]meet us [Am]here
In the [F]summer park with[G] me and my friend [C]Dan[G][C]
an easier version for people who like me aren't hugely bothered about it being in
the right key, so long as we can play it.
