Swimming Song

C G Am F G Am G C This summer I went swimming G Am This summer I might have drowned F But I held my breath and I kicked my feet G Am And I moved my arms 'round G C Moved my arms around This summer I swam in the ocean G Am Then swam in a swimming pool F Salt my wounds, chlorine my eyes G Am I'm a self-destructive fool G C A self-destructive fool C G Am F G Am G C This summer I did the backstroke G Am And you know that that’s not all F I did the breaststroke and the butterfly G Am And the old Australian Crawl G C The old Australian Crawl This summer I swam in a public place G Am And a reservoir to boot F At the latter I was informal G Am At the former I wore my suit G C I wore my swimming suit C G Am F G Am G C This summer I did swan-dives G Am And jack-knifes for you all F And once when you weren’t looking G Am I did a cannonball G C Did a cannonball This summer I went swimming G Am This summer I might have drowned F But I held my breath and I kicked my feet G Am And I moved my arms around G C Moved my arms around C G Am F G Am G C (2x)
