[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Fifty years ago, or fifty years from now D Gotta lighten your load, gotta put it down D Go to the water, and jump right in A D Wash away your troubles, be yourself again
[Verse 2]
D We go down to the swimming hole D Where we could both finally bear our souls D Swim all day in the warm sunlight A D Lay on our backs and watch the stars at night
[Chorus]
G D Life can be so unkind A D You gotta leave it all behind G D You got yours and I got mine A D Come on in, the water's fine
[Guitar Solo]
G D A D
[Verse 3]
D When happiness seems out of reach D There's a lot of good times down on the beach D Take off your wig, take off your clothes, honey A D And go down to the ocean, get the sand in your toes
[Chorus]
G D Oh, life can be so unkind A D You gotta leave it all behind G D You got yours and I got mine A D Come on in, the water's fine
[Fiddle Solo]
G D A D
[Verse 4]
D Well find yourself a mountain stream D Where the air is cool and the water's clean D Ain't no bars on the telephone A D Sometimes it's best just to really be alone
[Verse 5]
D Later on, the sun goes down D The barred owl calls, and your friends come 'round D We build a fire, scream at a stars A D Realize how small we are
[Out-Chorus]
G D Well life can be so unkind A D You gotta leave it all behind G D You got yours, and I got mine A D Come on in, the water's fine G D Life can be so unkind A D You gotta leave it all behind G D You got yours, and I got mine A D Jump on in, the water's fine A D Ease on in, the water's fine A G Cold plunge, jump in, the water's fine D Jump on in, the water's fine
