Campfire Kansas The Get Up Kids
[D]woke up at eight, started the fire
[A/C#]had a few drinks, we all felt inspired
[Bm]jumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens the
[G]water was bitter cold
[D]laid in the raft till it started moving the
[A/C#]current just sang, the song was so soothing we
[Bm]stopped along the [G]way on a
[Bm]beach in the sun on a [G]beautiful day
Chorus 1:
[Bm] our [G]boats col[D]lide, we'd [Em7]feel the [G]breeze, we'd
s[Bm]tay a[G]float and [D]make the [Em7]most of [G]everything

Verse 2:
by [D]noon we had swung the ropes in the woods
[A/C#]missed all danger, snakes and the floods
[Bm]burnt by the rays and next to our legs the
[G]water so bitter cold
[D]lunch had been saved along with the lighters
[A/C#]wet cigarettes serve us as reminders
[Bm]never trust a [G]man with the [Bm]food, change of clothes
and a [G]drink in his hand
Chorus 2:
[Bm] our [G]boats col[D]lide, we'd [Em7]feel the [G]breeze
we'd s[Bm]tay a[G]float and [D]make the [Em7]most of [G]everything
the [Bm]sun would [G]set, the s[D]tars would [Em7]shine
the [Bm]trees would [G]shake, we'd [D]all feel f[Em7]ine
let's [Bm]take the [G]moon and [D]make it [Em7]shine for [G]everyone

Bridge:
we [A]laughed away the sunburn, as we [G]laughed away the [D]day
[A]what we lost means nothing, for the [Em7]memories will stay
Verse 3:
[D]caught the last bus with no time to linger
[A/C#]driver seemed to be missing a finger
I [Bm]turned and looked a[G]way
to the [Bm]bus gravel road and a [G]beautiful day
(Repeat Chorus 2)
