*Standard tuning, no capo*
(Verse 1)
D
Lazy yeller moon comin? up tonight shinin through the trees
G
Crickets are singing and lightning bugs are floatin on the breeze
D
Baby get ready
Cross the field where the creek turns back by the old stump row
G
I?m gonna take you to a special place that nobody knows
D
Baby get ready
A7
Oooh Oooh
(Chorus)
D
You and me go fishin in the dark
Lyin on our backs and countin the stars
G
Where the cool grass grows
D
Down by the river in the full moon light
We?ll be fallin in love in the middle of the night
G
Just movin slow
Em A
Stayin the whole night through
Em A D
Feels so good to be with you
(Verse 2)
D
Spring is almost over and the summers comin; the days are getting long
G
I?ve waited all winter for the time to be right just to take you along
D
Baby get ready
D
And it don?t matter if we sit forever and the fish dont bite
G
We?ll jump in the river and cool ourselves from the heat of the night
D
Baby get ready
A7
Ooooh Oooh
(Chorus 2x)
Fade out
