Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I?m gonna clear  my head,
 I?m gonna drink  that sun.
 The saddest sight  my eyes  can see
 Is that big  ball of orange sinking slyly  down the trees.
Sittin?  in a broken circle  while you rest  upon my knee,
 This perfect  moment will soon be leaving  me.
Suzanne  calls from Boston,  the coffee's hot,  the corn is high,
 And that same  sun that warms your heart will suck  the good earth dry.
With  everything its opposite  enough  to keep you crying,
  0
 Or keep this old world spinning with a twinkle in its eye.
 Get out the map,
 Get out the map  and lay your finger  anywhere down.
 We'll leave the figuring to those  we pass on our way  out of town.
 Don't drink the water,  there seems  to be something ailing  everyone.
 I?m gonna clear my head,
 I?m gonna drink  that sun.
 I?m gonna love  you good and strong while our love  is good and young.
 Joni left for South Africa a few years ago
 And then Beth took a job all the way over on the west coast
 And me I?m still trying to live half a life on the road
 Seems I?m heavier  by the year
  (heavier by the year)
 And heavier  by the load
 (heavier by the load)
 Why do we hurtle ourselves through every inch of time and space?
 I must say around some corner I can sense a resting place.
 With every lesson learned a line upon your beautiful face,
 We'll amuse ourselves one day with these memories we'll trace
 Get out the map,
 Get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down.
 We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town.
 Don't drink the water, there seems to be something ailing everyone.
 I?m gonna clear my head,
 (I?m gonna clear my head)
 I?m gonna drink that sun,
  (I?m gonna drink that sun)
 I?m gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young.
I?m  gonna clear my head,
 I?m gonna drink  that sun,
 I?m gonna love  you good and strong while our love  is good and young.
