(gtr played in a ska reggae style)
AmI wanna Fjump on a Ctrain,
DmTake me Fout of the Csame old thing
AmI wanna Ffeel no Cpain,
Take me south further Dmdown, take me Fsouth further Cdown
AmI wanna Fjump in a Clake,
DmTake me Fout to an Cold blue spring,
AmI wanna Fswim in a Ccave,
Let the water cool me Dmdown, let the Fwater cool me Cdown
[Chorus]
FAll the fish go Dmswimming by they Csay goodnightF  
FAnd I wish the dDmimming sky would Cstay so DmbrighGt
AmI wanna Fhop on a Cplane
DmTo any Fplace where the Ctires swing
AmI wanna Fhome on the Crange
Just to keep me on the Dmground, just to Fkeep me on the Cground
AmI wanna Fdrive in the Crain
DmOr in the Fsun it's Call the same
AmI wanna Fstep on the Cbreaks
Hope the lead will slow me Dmdown, hope the Flead will slow me Cdown
[Chorus]
FWhile the trucks go Dmspeeding past I'm going Call but fastF  
FDon't have a million Dmbucks for gas so we'll Cmake it DmlastG  
FAll the clouds go Dmfloating by big, Cround, and whiteF
