Intro: G - A# C / G - - -

          G    _
I hate to swim
         A#             C                 G   -
And the water's so damn cold this time of year
     A#            C                    G    -
And when I drown I have nothing left to fear
        A#              C              G   -
So just get me up, just get me out of here
        A#                 A      G   - - -
But you know its not that easy anyways

                  G    -
I climbed lots of trees
     A#               C               G  -
When I was young and lived to tell of it
               A#                 C                    G  -
Cause when I'm climbing high, the ground is so easy to hit
      A#                 C                    G  -
But I could not let that girl get higher than me
         A#
Well you see its not that easy
          A
Don't you know its not that easy and
G#                          G   - - -
I know its not that easy anyways

         C        A      A#  -
Well its hard for you to see
     C                     A                  A# -
Just what this means, just what this means to me
      C        A       A#
And I know its hard to tell
     C                A                    A#   -
That through it all I hope/have been doing well
             G    A# C G - - -
It's time to tell

Still can't drive a car
The other ones on the road still scare me
And when its dark the cars are so hard to see
And I'm colourblind, I can't tell red from green
Well you see its not...
Well you see its not...

Well its hard for you to see...

This can be played with either bar chords or first position
chords, take your pick (except that I don't know how to play G#
in first position).
