G C
When I tripped over Charlie and I hit the grass,
G C
I was comin up runnin’ I was comin’ up fast

But he beat me I was runnin’ for the door

G C
And I can’t sleep at night can’t wake in the day
G C
got these guitars, got so much to say
G C Dsus4 D
but no time or energy to say it
G C
yeah we can still walk in the park there ain’t nobody there
G C
there's a calm in the trees and a cool in there air
G C Dsus4
D
it’s warm and I found it kind of soothing
G C
In a couple of months when the leaves turn green
G C
when the seasons change when the bird sings
G C Dsus4
D
I'm gonna grab you up and I'm taking you for good
G C
Yes and we'll walk by the river most every single day
G C
and we'll eat our dinner where the tourists play
G C Dsus4
D
yeah the city's old but it never seems to get tired
