Fishing in the dark chords
Start Jamming...
Lazy yellow moon coming up tonight shining through the trees.
[G] Crickets are singing and lightning bugs are floating on a breeze.
[D] Baby get ready.
Across the field where the creek turns back by the old stumble road.
[G] I'm gonna take you to a special place that nobody knows.
Baby get [D] ready.
[A]
Ooh, ooh, ooh.
[D] You and me going fishing in the dark.
Lying on our backs and counting the stars where the cool grass grows.
Down by the river in the full moon light.
We'll be falling in love in the middle of the night just moving slow.
[Em] Staying the [A] whole night through.
[Em]
Feels so [A] good to be [D] with you.
Spring is almost over and the summer is coming.
The days are getting long.
[E] Waiting all winter for the time to be right just to take you along.
[D] Baby get ready.
And it don't matter if we sit forever and the fish don't bite.
[G] We'll jump in the river and cool ourselves from the heat of the night.
Baby get [D] ready.
[A]
Ooh, [D] ooh, ooh.
You and me going fishing in the dark.
Lying on our backs and counting the [G] stars where the cool grass [D] grows.
Down by the river in the full moon light.
We'll be falling in love in the middle of the night just moving slow.
[Em] Staying the [A] whole night through.
[Em]
Feels so [A] good to be [D] with you and me going fishing in the dark.
Lying on our backs and counting the [G] stars where the cool [D] grass grows.
[G] [D] Down by the river in the full moon light.
We'll be falling in love in the middle of the night just moving slow.
You and me going fishing in the dark.
Lying on our backs and counting the [G] stars where the cool grass grows.
[D]
