KILL DEVIL FALLS
Phish
[Intro]
CJust got back from GKill Devil Falls, draped my waterlogged Cclothes in the hallC  
CReached for a beer, Gglad that I’m here when I realized that you’re not CaroundC  
CTurned on some music, tGhen the tv, go through the pile of mail waiting Cfor meC  
CSomething I spied makes me Gpull it aside, a letter from your homeCtown
[Chorus]
FHow could you leave me, you Cheard what I said
GI’d be at the waterfall Cclearing my head
FSoaking up nature and Cthinking of you
GAnd leaving’s the last think I thought you would dGoF#  F  
FI didn't plan to sCtop at the bar, but GKill Devil Falls is Creally so far
FWho knew a day would turn into a Cweek
GBut I learned my lesson
GAnd I can remember the last one
GThis time will be different, 
GUntil I do it aCgain
[Intro]
CI stared at the Gceiling for over a day, but none of my questions are Canswered this wayC  
CWon’t make any calls, I’ll just Gbounce off the walls, till I go back to Kill Devil CFalls
[Chorus]
FHow could you leave me, you Cheard what I said
GI’d be at the waterfall Cclearing my head
FSoaking up nature and Cthinking of you
GAnd leaving’s the last think I thought you would dGoF#  F

FWho knew a day would turn into a Cweek
GBut I learned my lesson
GAnd I can remember the last one
GThis time will be different, 
GThis time will be different
[Bridge]
FStanding at the face of a Cmountain       G(Don’t follow me)
FI stepped right up to the Ccliff side     G(Better learn how to leap)
FStared straight into the Cfuture              G(Tell me what do ya see?)
