INTRO: A
They were sitting, they were sitting in the strawberry swing
And every moment was so precious
They were sitting, they were talking in the strawberry swing
And everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing
Cold, cold water bring me 'round
E (F#m)
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water
What you say?
It's such, it's such a perfect day
(Bm) A
It's such a perfect day
I remember we were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait 'til the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing
People moving all the time
E (F#m)
Inside a perfect straight line
Don't you wanna scurve away
It's such it's such a perfect day
(A) Bm
It's such a perfect day

Ahhhh....
Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you its a waste of time
...could be blue I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time
The sky could be blue, could be gray without you I just slide away
The sky could be blue, I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time
A - C#m - A7- D and fades
End on A5 for a few bars
