Live for the Watermelon

D C D7 G
Permit me to rejoice in the words I spoke on the day I died
D C D7 G
I believe I failed to tell all of my loved ones goodbye
Em G
Well it's a dark and weary world I'm a-leavin'
Bm D
It's a bright light toward which I go
C G D
Live for the watermelon, birds and the bees
C D7 G
And the notes in the songs of old
Every boy must walk his path holdin' his father's hand
Then he must walk it all alone hummin' his favorite band
Well it's a dark and weary world I'm a-leavin'
Lord knows I ain't ready to go
Live for the watermelon, guitars and the girls
And reapin' them seeds you done sowed
INTRO
Twists and turns and ups and downs and curves and flips and dives
Back and forth and left and right, oh child just love bein' alive
Well it's a dark and weary world I'm a-leavin'
But I know I've lived high and low
Live for the watermelon, rain and sun
And kissin' them girls you know
REPEAT FIRST VERSE
INTRO
