Chord Swimming Song by Loudon Wainwright Iii

loudon wainwright the iii swimming song this is a tab of the acoustic rendition of this song : G - C - G this summer i went swimming , D - Dsus4 - Em - Em7 - Em this summer i might have drowned Em - C - Cadd9 - C but i held my breath and i kicked my feet D - Dsus4 - D Em - Em7 - Em and i moved my arms around , D - Dsus4 - D G i moved my arms around . this summer i swam in the ocean , and i swam in a swimming pool , salt my wounds , chlorine my eyes , i’m a self - destructive fool , a self - destructive fool . this summer i swam in a public place and a reservoir , to boot , at the latter i was informal , at the former i wore my suit , i wore my swimming suit . this summer i did the backstroke and you know that’s not all i did the breast stroke and the butterfly and the old australian crawl , the old australian crawl . this summer i did swan dives and jackknifes for you all and once when you weren’t looking i did a cannonball , i did a cannonball .
