This old boat kept us afloat

All those years on the lake

I remember that day I heard my best friend say

This is probably the last trip I’ll make

C G

Cuz the doctors are saying it ain’t lookin’ good

C G

And I doubt that I’ll make it to spring

And it’s a hell of a note

G C

When you never know

What tomorrow might bring

C D G

So I don’t buy green bananas

C D G

Well I don’t play the lottery

C D G

Right now’s all I’ve got going

Am D

Yeah and that’s just fine for me

C D G

And I don’t own an umbrella

C D Em

If it rains, I’m gonna get wet

C D G

So I don’t buy green bananas

Am D G

Cuz I don’t plan that far ahead

It aint’ the same on these hot summer days

When I’m out here fishin’ alone

Well sometimes I might get a few bites

But then there’s days that I don’t

So I just roll with the flow

And I rock with the waves

C G

Catch me some rays from the sun

C G

Yeah and like my friend said I’m gonna live while I can

Am D

And take each day as it comes

C D G

So I don’t buy green bananas

C D G

I don’t play the lottery

C D G

Right now’s all I’ve got goin’

Am D

Yea and that’s just fine for me

C D G

And I don’t own an umbrella

C D Em

If it rains, I’m gonna get wet

C D Em

And I don’t buy green bananas

Am D G

I don’t plan that far ahead

C D G

I don’t own an umbrella

C D Em

If it rains, I’m gonna get wet

C D Em

And I don’t buy green bananas

Am D G

Cuz I don’t plan... that far... ahead
