Swimming
Brendan Benson

[Verse 1]
Gm C7
North of shelby town there's a lake uncharted
Gm C7
And from an anchor town comes a boy whole hearted
Bb D Eb
All his preparation so exhausting
Gm F C Bb
Built endurance makes him right for the crossing
Gm C7
And not in winter time cause the lake's all frozen
Gm C7
June is opportune so the date is chosen
Bb D Eb
Take the tripod to raft for short filming
Gm F C
It's only small town news but to us he's famous
Gm F D C
His declaration makes everyone think he's the greatest

[Chorus]
Ab Cm Eb F
All the way in record time
D D7 Gm Bb
All our eyes were glued to the waves that he made in an unnamed lake
Ab Cm Eb F
Follow the wake through record time
D D7 C
All the while the camera's collecting the take...
C
All collecting the take.

[Verse 2]
Gm C7
It's only us except for a lone man fishing
Gm C7
Find a shady spot to lay out the provisions
Bb D Eb Cm
Puts his goggles on for underwater vision
Gm F C Bb
As he breaks the glass into water with diver's precision
Gm F D C
He's one ambitious boy, an olympic tradition

[Chorus]
Ab Cm Eb F
All the way in record time
D D7 Gm Bb
All our eyes were glued to the waves that he made in an unnamed lake
Ab Cm Eb F
Follow the wake in record time
D D7 Gm Bb
All the while the camera's collecting the take

[Guitar Break]
Dm Bb Eb Am
Do do do do do, do do do do do do do
