So, the other version that's up here is too hard for me as a beginner, so I worked 
an easier version for people who like me aren't hugely bothered about it being in 
the right key, so long as we can play it.
Capo 4
[Verse 1]
CMe and my friend Dan are gonna Emget some beers and then
We’re gonna Fgo down to the Gpark and drink them Cthere
We'll Cbask out in the sun, bring a Emguitar and play some songs
Call up our Ffriends and invGite them out to Amshare
What might Embe the last Fweekend of the Csummer
Cause SepDmtember's getting colder as it Amgoes
And we Fhaven't done Genough of this Csimple Emkind of Amstuff
this year. It's Fclear we're getting Golder and it Cshows
[Verse 2]
CWork weeks make us weary now and Emschool's a distant memory
It’s Feasy to ask Gquestions of ourCselves,
CLike: where it is we're going now and Emwhat we have to show
For all the Fsunny days Gshut up in the Amshells
Of expecEmtations of our Fultimate Cdirections
And the Dmstations that we should have reached by Amnow
When we Fhaven't read the Gscript and our Ctender Emwings are Amclipped
And we're Fscared we might be Gletting someone Cdown
C  G  F  Dm
C  G  F  Em  Dm  Em  Dm
[Verse 3]
CSo we listen to these heartbreak songs Emwhen nothing’s really wrong
And we Fsmile when we're Gasked and say we're Cfine
CBut we're drifting through our middle days, we're cEmreeping into middle age
FSetting in our Gways... But now it's Amtime
To Emdecide now its Ftime to draw Ca line
In the Dmsand and ask what's more important Amthan days like toFday
So grab some Gbeers call your Cfriends and Emmeet us Amhere
In the Fsummer park with Gme and my friend CDanG  C
