Standard (EADGBE)

This summer I went swimming

THis summer I might have drowned

 But I held my breath and I kicked my feet

 And I moved my arms around.

 I moved my arms around.

This summer I swam in the ocean

Swam in the swimming pool

Salt in my wounds, chlorine in my eyes,

I'm a self-destructive fool,

Self-destructive fool.

This summer I did the backstroke,

And you know that thats not all.

I did the breast stroke and the butterfly,

And the old Australian crawl,

The old Australian crawl.

This summer I swam in a public place and a reservoir to boot,

At the latter I was informal,

At the former I wore my suit,

I wore my swimming suit.

This summer I did swan dives and

Jack knives for you all.

And once when you weren't looking

I did a cannonball

I did a cannonball.

This summer I went swimming

THis summer I might have drowned

But I held my breath and I kicked my feet

And I moved my arms around.

I moved my arms around.

This is a great song with alot of banjo. Sounds good to strum it at a good pace

on and off

here and there. I'll have a guitar friendly

tab comming soon for the banjo between the verses.
