Chords for Eric Hutchinson "Shine on Me"

_ _ _ You guys having a good time so far?
[N] All right
Then we shall continue.
I was in Amsterdam this summer
I was traveling and I went to Amsterdam and while I was in Amsterdam
I tried to do what everybody does while they're in Amsterdam go to the Anne Frank house
_ _ It's incredibly crowded.
It was like a three-hour wait.
I couldn't get in so I had to go smoke weed instead and
_ Let me just tell you I'm not a drug user.
I don't do drugs.
I don't smoke weed
So I went to this coffee shop and I had three hits of a joint and I was high for 24 hours
No exaggeration.
This is the lamest drug story of all time
So I was high for a long time.
I went to sleep.
I got up the next day.
I was still high things were out of whack
Amsterdam is beautiful
I was walking around the canals and just enjoying myself and having really deep thoughts
And like to share a couple of those with you guys right now _
Number one if I'd known I was gonna get high I would have worn different shoes _
Also ice cream.
_ _ _ I'm gonna apologize to every person I ever made fun of when they were high in a handwritten note
It's gonna take forever man
And then I started getting a little freaked out.
I think I couldn't drive a car if I had a gun to my head right now
And then I wrote parentheses big applause
I've no idea what that means _ _ _
_ _ Thank you
Then I started getting deep guys get ready.
It's the difference between sitting in the middle of a roller coaster and the front
_ Wow
_ And then the last one here, you've got the Santa Monica Sun shining down on you
Not funny at all
[G]
But I liked that line and I kept thinking about it and from Amsterdam
I went to London and that became the seed of a new song and the songs called shine on me
