ID BE ON A BOAT SOMEWHERE by Josh Thompson
GIf i had me a nickel for Cadd9every tGime
I could Ccount on you i wouldn't Dhave a Gdime
If I could turn your so-called love into Cadd9cold hard Gcash 
It would Cadd9turn my life Daround real GfastD/F#  
Em7If I could take the heartaches, the Cadd9letdowns of the past
Cadd9Count em all up, and cash em all in make a Dquick stop at the bank
[CHORUS 1]
Id be on a Cadd9boat somewhere, out in the ocean
Fishin' for a cold beer and sun tan lotion and Gfloatin'
Cadd9Livin' it up, soakin' it in instead of sittin' round worried bout where ya been
If i could Dtrade the lies you told for gold i Cadd9swear...
Id be on a Gboat somewhere
[VERSE 2]
Id be Gspendin' them new found Cadd9dollar Gbills
Finally Cadd9catchin' a buzz that Dyou can't Gkill
And it'd be hard to think about you on Cadd9Key West Gtime
Between the Cadd9water and the sand and the Dsalt and the GlimeD/F#  
Em7If these blues where greenbacks I'd be Cadd9rakin' it in
Instead of Dsittin' round here just waitin' for my ship to come in
[CHORUS 2 & 3]
Id be on a Cadd9boat somewhere, out in the ocean
Fishin' for a cold beer and sun tan lotion and Gfloatin'
Cadd9Livin' it up, soakin' it in instead of sittin' round here worried bout where ya been
If i could Dtrade the lies you told for gold i Cadd9swear...

Id be on a Cadd9boat somewhere, out in the ocean
