C#
I hope you spend your days
A#m
writing verses on your page.
May your life be a Walden Pond swim.
F#
Taking showers in the cold
C#
and your glasses filled to their brim.
C#
And I hope you treat your heart
A#m
real nice and real smart.
May your life be a Walden Pond swim.
F#
Can't be worthless seein' stars,
C#
buying rocky-road for me and him.
C#
Stay in that water and
keep where you're feeling fine but
F# C#
I'm just the daughter of a man who lives on oak and wine and I
G#
swim like my father
F# C#
and remember hard days drivin' miles across county lines.
C#
I hope you realize
A#m
why the clouds are always crying.
May your life be a Walden Pond dive.
F#
Shaking flowers at the ground
C#
while you live the life you did at five.
C#
And I hope it's testified
A#m
for you the best had been denied.
May your life be a Walden Pond swim.
F#
May you find your love tonight
C#
and the times you have are never grim.

way back in the fall.
