Gone Swimming by Mark Curry
Gone Swimming
This is one of the best song I know so far. Besides it's very easy (at least the
rhythm guitar, singing simutaneously might be more difficult)!
The G is played at the 3rd fret and you slide into the F played at the first
fret, everytime you have a G followed by an F.
G F C C
G F C C
G F
Down by the Riverside, well there's a place for me
C C
Where I won't sit and think about where I'd rather be
G F
and I don't need nothing
C C
but the look on my face
G(stop)
It's all bullshit
F(stop) D C(stop)
It's just the time it takes between
G D
where it comes and where it
C
You can go swimming, no sign of rainstorms or
F
thunder I won't be joining you
C
because today between the time it's taking
F C(stop)
me to wonder I just might get sucked under
single note riff: G A# C D#^C

G F C C
Down by the ocean, it's all behind me it's just an open sea,
G F
and I can really see for miles
C C
I wish I knew just what I was looking for
G(stop) F(stop) D
A pool of endless rhymes, I ain't talking 'bout the water
C(stop) G D
We're talking time, where it comes and where it yeah
C F
You can go swimming, there's been no warning of hurricane
C
or tidal wave, ain't no dangerous fish out there
F
I won't be joining you still
C
It's just a feeling in me I get washed out to the sea
C(sus2)
Yeah the sea
D D Am Am fooling around with Dsus2, Dsus4,
D D Am Am(stop) Am7 and Amsus2 sounds nice if you're
playing alone (i.e. without band)
D
I wish I could go 'cause you know
C
that the water doesn't usually frighten me so
F
It's not the depth of the sea that infatuates me
G
It's what remains to be seen, like the time in between
D F
where it comes and where it goes
D F C(stop) riff
where it goes yeah
G F
Down in a creekbed in my old neighbourhood
C C
there is a trickle that's dirty and warm
G F
and I have spend many a childhood hour there
C C
It's where I used to play, seems like yesterday
G F
But I was younger then, just make believing
C C
making wishes and tossing pennies in
G(stop) F(stop)
and now I've grown, haven't changed my tone,
D C F
just getting stoned and ain't pretending that I know
C F
You can go swimming though it's only a trickle there
C
and the floodgates haven't worked for years
F
I won't be joining you, no, I wish I could go
but I
C F
and I
C F
You can go swimming
fade out...
