                G        C
I'm gonna clear my head,
          G 
I'm gonna drink that sun.
G           C        G
The saddest sight my eyes can see
G       D                          C              G
Is that big ball of orange sinking slyly down the trees.
G                  C                G
Sittin in a broken circle while you rest upon my knee,
     A                           D
This perfect moment will soon be leaving me.
G                  C                    G
Suzanne calls from Boston, the coffee's hot, the corn is high,
         D                                   C                   G
And that same sun that warms your heart will suck the good earth dry.
     G              C          G
With everything its opposite enough to keep you crying,
   A                                   D
Or keep this old world spinning with a twinkle in its eye.


            G                C                G
Get out the map, Get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down.
                G             C                   D7
We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town.
                G            C                     G
Don't drink the water, there seems to be something ailing everyone.
          G         C               G
I'm gonna clear my head, I'm gonna drink that sun.
          C                                  D7               G
I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young.

Joni left for South Africa a few years ago
         D                           C                G
And then Beth took a job all the way over on the west coast
    G            C                     G
And me I'm still trying to live half a life on the road
          A                                         D
Seems I'm heavier by the year... And heavier by the load.


          G                              C                G
Why do we hurtle ourselves through every inch of time and space?
       D                            C               G
I must say around some corner I can sense a resting place.
     G            C                        G
With every lesson learned a line upon your beautiful face,
       A                                 D
We'll amuse ourselves one day with these memories we'll trace


            G                C                G
Get out the map, Get out the map and lay your finger anywhere down.
                G             C                   D7
We'll leave the figuring to those we pass on our way out of town.
                G            C                     G
Don't drink the water, there seems to be something ailing everyone.
          G         C              G
I'm gonna clear my head, I'm gonna drink that sun.
          C                                  D7               G
I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young.
          G         C               G

          C                                  D7               G
I'm gonna love you good and strong while our love is good and young.
