Capo 2
Am F C G (2X)
[Am]Well I was the only one down in K[F]iva Duns,
[C]That didnt drive a car that wasnt c[G]ool enough.
[Am]Just a baby blue parking-lot gremlin, n[F]ot exactly a magnet for the women,
[C]Until I hung that surfboard [G]out the back.
[Am]For tips I caddied at the l[F]ocal course,
[C]At night I mixed boat drinks d[G]own on the Warf.
[Am]Flirting with the college girls getting m[F]y bare feet wet out in the world.
[C]Fell in love a h[G]undred times.
-Chorus-
[C]Time was mine and life was easy, j[G]ust like those ocean breezes.
[Am]Carrying off the afternoon w[F]asnt long underneath the moon we had.
[C]A beach fire and a pile of wet clothes, l[G]aid back watching her skin glow.
[Am]I gotta smile when I think about those ta[F]n bod bikini top s[G]o hot summer job days.
[Am] [F] [C] [G]
[Am]The end of August came and the c[F]rowds went home,
[C]The beaches deserted and the g[G]irls were gone.
[Am]Yeah I waved goodbye to the time and place and that t[F]wo-lane back to the interstate.
[C]When I look back I s[G]till look back when.
-Chorus-
[C]Time was mine and life was easy, j[G]ust like those ocean breezes.
[Am]Carrying off the afternoon w[F]asnt long underneath the moon we had.
[C]A beach fire and a pile of wet clothes, l[G]aid back watching her skin glow.
[Am]I gotta smile when I think about those ta[F]n bod bikini top s[G]o hot summer job days.
