verse 1GFC*
Summer day we're on our way feeling good together beautiful Chris
AmD ( e|-3-2-0-2-| )
Just me and my friends having fun, enjoying the sun
GFC*
We are colours we're red and white as my teenage skin was tanned
You were my father's fifth child
AmD
and your look was vintage and wild but now you're stuck in the sand
G/EG/F#GG/F#Em
'Cause it only took a couple of minutes and all the fish had a new home
CDGG/BG
and I was feeling so alone as I called my daddy on the phone
G/EG/F#GG/F#Em
Oh though it only took a couple of days and I could look into my father's eyes again
CDGG/EG/F#
I got this feeling of shame in my head, this fact remains: Chris is dead
verse 2GF
Well, anyway I was surfing on my board behind the boat
CC/B
when I heard a big crash and suddenly rocks and stones appeared from the water
Am
and I was thinking 'What are they doing here?'
D ( e|-3-2-0-2-| ) G/EG/F#
They're not supposed to be here. This can't be real.
GF
And then my sister started screaming
C
Oh my God we're taking in water I've got water up to my knees
C/BAm
and then she picked up the sailor phone and she, she dialed 911
D
'cause she was in a shock and I was too, you know. I didn't know what to do
G/EG/F#GG/F#Em
'Cause it only took a couple of minutes and all the fish had a new home
CDGG/BG
and I was feeling so alone as I called my daddy on the phone
G/EG/F#GG/F#Em
Oh though it only took a couple of days and I could look into my father's eyes again
CDG
I got this feeling of shame in my head, this fact remains: Chris is dead
G/F#Em
Oh, Chris is dead
G/F#G
But look, you've got a new song
G/F#Em
Yeah, but Chris is dead
G/F#G
But hey, you've got this new song
D
And the song, it wouldn't been made up
C
if I wouldn't have sinked that ship in the ocean
AmGG/F#
So when everything comes around I guess things are fine
EmGG/F#
I tell you, things are fine
EmGG/F#Em
Yeah, things are fine, wohoo
