Hayes

E Every chance he gets, B Old Hayes and his bamboo pole, A E Relaxing at the fishing hole, A B You can just bet. E He says, "Fishing helps to pass the time, B A E And I spend most of mine, A E And even when the fish ain't biting, A B E It's been time well spent." E Fishing's good you know, B It sets your mind at ease, A E And doing what you please A B Is the only way to go. E All I ever need B A E Is a weight on the line and a hook on the lead, A E And a kind word softly spoken A B E To the bait down below. E B Oh, I love to watch the sun come up. A Nothing like a sunny day, E To get you thinking in a natural way. E B Oh, I love to feel the free spirit fly. A When I hear the children sing, E I think I love it more than anything. E Never travelled much. B Never felt the need to get A E Too far out of tough A B With the life that I lead. E Just a fine view, a fast stream, B A E A little fresh air is still a city boy's dream, A E A B E And it's clear sailing, if you know what I mean. E B Oh, I love to watch the sun come up. A Nothing like a sunny day, E To get you thinking in a natural way. E B Oh, I love to feel the free spirit fly. A When I hear the children sing, E I think I love it more than anything.
