south[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe were tryin' to get off the island[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWishin' for a sky without any clouds[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWith a big nice bright sun shinin'[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWe found a spot in a soggy swamp[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd set up our tiny tent[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nOur feet were wet again[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut we were gettin' used to it[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]              [ch]D[/ch]      [ch]G[/ch]\r\nOur feet were always wet[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nA man drove by in a silver car[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWith a mean look on his face[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHe looked at us in the rear-view[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd then he hit the breaks[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWe walked up to the open window[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nNot knowin' what to think[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut he wanted to know where we were goin'[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd see if it was on his way[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWe told him we were goin' to Dover[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd hopefully over to France that night[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHe said, \"So am I, hop in[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd I'll give you a ride\"[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]            [ch]D[/ch]      [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd we were on our way[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe said he stopped to pick us up[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nBecause we looked so out of luck[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHe was havin' a bad day too[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut he thought we had him beat[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nIt was his philosophy that if you see[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nSomeone in a worse way than you[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nIt's your ethical obligation[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nTo stop and see what you can do[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]            [ch]D[/ch]                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI wish everyone thought that too[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe asked if we had our tickets[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd when our boat would leave[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWe confessed we didn't know that yet[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd we'd get there then we'd see[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe said, \"You should just ride with me[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nBecause passengers ride free[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nIt takes a couple of hours[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd I could use the company\"[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]         [ch]D[/ch]            [ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo could we, so could we[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nBut he was goin' to Belgium[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd we were goin' to France[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut we decided to change our plans[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\n'Cause you don't pass up a chance like that[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWe got there late and he was pissed[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nThat he missed the hovercraft[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nIf he'd have to take the slow boat[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nThen he would ride first class[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nOur bad luck was gone at last[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWe got to the lonely lobby[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd we filled our packs with snacks[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nThey were free, those pastries[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd those drinks would weight our backs[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe could see our hesitation[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe were concerned about bein' rude[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHe said, \"Take as much as you can hold, kids[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nI was once like you[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI have been there too\"[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWe got aboard the ferry[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd they took us to our seats[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWhich were basically in a nice restaurant[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd it looked like we were gonna get to eat[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nThey brought us priceless menus[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd they brought us more drinks[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWe were the only dirty kids there[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nWith our big backpacks and stinky feet[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo we ate our three-course meal[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nAnd talked to our new-found friend[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nWe told him about the music we played[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe was an electrician[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nHe asked where we planned to sleep that night[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]\r\nWe said we had no clue[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]C[/ch]\r\nHe said, \"I'll drop you off by the side of the road[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]G[/ch]\r\nThat's what I used to do[/tab]\r\n\r\n\r\n[tab]      [ch]D[/ch]
