The Swimming Song

G C G This summer I went swimming Dsus2 Em This summer I might have drowned C But I held my breath and I kicked my feet D G D G And I moved my arms around, I moved my arms around G C G This summer I swam in the ocean Dsus2 Em And I swam in a swimming pool C Salt my wounds, chlorine my eyes D G D G I'm a self-destructive fool, a self-destructive fool G C G This summer I swam in a public place Dsus2 Em And a reservoir, to boot C At the latter I was informal D G D G At the former I wore my suit, I wore my swimming suit G C G This summer I did the backstroke Dsus2 Em And you know that's not all C I did the breast stroke and the butterfly D G D G And the old Australian crawl, the old Australian crawl G C G This summer I did swan dives Dsus2 Em And jackknifes for you all C And once when you weren't looking D G D G I did a cannonball, I did a cannonball G C G This summer I went swimming Dsus2 Em This summer I might have drowned C But I held my breath and I kicked my feet D G D G And I moved my arms around, I moved my arms around
