C                               Am 
woo hoo doo woo woo hoo ooo woo ooo 

C                          F            C 
It's always summer in this Southern state 
F                           C          F      Am 
Where I'm behind the moon floating in space 
C                         F        C 
But I'm not in hiding, just trying not to be found 
F               C           F             Am 
So when I hear my name I ever turn around 

C                               Am 
woo hoo doo woo woo hoo ooo woo ooo 

C                    F                  C 
Here in the valley they live in their cars 
F           C             F       Am 
As they dream of fields under ocean of stars 
C                          F         C 
And I'm disappearing into that grid 
F                C         F     Am 
Where I'll live out in the open but perfectly hid 

C                               Am 
woo hoo doo woo woo hoo ooo woo ooo 

C                         F            C 
It's always summer in this Southern state 
F                     C           F         Am 
And it's a comfortable life in a beautiful place 
C                         F             C 
But something's ratting somewhere inside 
F                    C      F        Am 
And it sounds like it's broken but in a place I can't find 

C                               Am 
woo hoo doo woo woo hoo ooo woo ooo 

F                           C          F      Am 
And it only gets louder with time 

C                               Am 
woo hoo doo woo woo hoo ooo woo ooo
