[Verse 2]
DSplashing through the sandC bar
GTalking by the campfire
It's the simDple things in life,C like when and where G
We Ddidn't have no CInternet
But, Gman, I never will forget
The Dway the moonlight shinedC upon her hair G
[Chorus]
And we were Dtrying different things C
We were Gsmoking funny things
Making Dlove out by the lakeC to our favoriteG song
Sipping Dwhiskey out the botCtle
Not Gthinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing SweetD home AlabaCma all Gsummer long

D C G Singing SweetD home AlabaCma all Gsummer long
[Verse 3]
Catching DWalleye from the dock C
Watching the wavesG roll off the rocks
She'll foDrever hold a Cspot inside my Gsoul
We'd Dblister in the sun C
We couldn't waitG for night to come
To hitD that sand and playC some rock and roll G
[Chorus]
While we were Dtrying different things C
And we were Gsmoking funny things
Making Dlove out by the lakeC to our favoriteG song
Sipping Dwhiskey out the botCtle
Not Gthinking 'bout tomorrow

G Now Dnothing seems as strange C
As when the leavesG began to change
Or howD we thought those daysC would never end G
SomeDtimes I hear that song C
And I Gstart to sing along
And think, Dman, I'd love to seeC that girl again
GMan, I'd like to see that girl again
[Chorus]
And we were Dtrying different things C
And we were Gsmoking funny things
Making Dlove out by the lakeC to our favoriteG song
Sipping Dwhiskey out the botCtle
Not Gthinking 'bout tomorrow
