Biography:
The Get Up Kids are a Kansas City-based American emo band. Formed in 1995, the band was a major player in the mid-90's emo scene, otherwise known as the "second wave" of emo music. As they gained prominence, they began touring with bands such as Green Day and Weezer before becoming headliners themselves, eventually embarking on international tours of Japan and Europe. They founded Heroes & Villains Records, an imprint of the successful indie rock label Vagrant Records.

[Verse 1]
C
Woke up at eight, started the fire
G
had a few drinks, we all felt inspired
Am
jumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens
F
the water was bitter cold
C
Laid in the raft till it started moving
G
the current just sang, the song was so soothing
Am F
we stopped along the way
Am F
on a beach in the sun, on a beautiful day
[Chorus]
Am F C D/Am F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am F C D/Am F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
[Verse 2]
C
By noon we had swung the ropes in the woods
G
missed all danger, snakes, and the floods
Am
burnt by the rays and next to our legs,
F
the water so bitter cold
C
Lunch had been saved along with the lighters
G
wet cigarettes serve us as reminders
Am F Am F
never trust a man with the food, change of clothes, and a drink in his hand
[Chorus]
Am F C D/Am F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am F C D/Am F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
Am F C D/Am
The sun would set, the stars would shine
Am F C D/Am
the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine
Am F C D/Am F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
[Bridge]
G
We laughed away the sunburn
F C
as we laughed away the day
G
What we lost means nothing
F/Dm
for the memories will stay...
[Verse 3]
C
Caught the last bus with no time to linger
G
the driver seemed to be missing a finger
Am F Am F
I turned and looked away to the bus, gravel road and a beautiful day
[Chorus]
Am F C D/Am F
Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze
Am F C D/Am F
We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything
Am F C D/Am
The sun would set, the stars would shine
Am F C D/Am
the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine
Am F C D/Am F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
Am F C D/Am F
Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
