Fishing In The Dark - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band chords
Start Jamming...
Oh, lazy yellow moon coming up to the night shining through the tree.
[G] Crickets are singing and lightning bugs are floating on a breeze.
Baby [D] get ready.
Across the field where the creek turns back by the old stump road.
[G] I'm gonna take you to a special place that nobody knows.
Baby [D] get ready.
[A]
[D] You and me going fishing in the dark, lying on our backs and counting the stars where the cool
grass grows.
Down by the river in the full moon light we'll be falling in love in the middle of
the night [G] just moving slow.
[D]
[Em] Staying the whole [A] night through.
[Em] It feels so good [A] to be [D] with you.
Spring is almost over and the summer's coming.
The days are getting long.
I [E] waited all winter for the time to be right just to take you along.
Baby [D] get ready.
It don't matter if we sit forever and the fish don't bite.
[G] Jump in the river and cool ourselves from the heat of the night.
Baby [D] get ready.
[A] Oh, [D] you and me going fishing in the dark, lying on our backs and counting the stars [G] where the cool
grass [D] grows.
Down by the river in the full moon light we'll be falling in love in the middle of
the night just moving slow.
[Em] Staying the whole [A] night through.
[Em] It feels so good [A] to be [D] with you
going fishing in the dark, lying on our backs and counting the stars where the cool grass grows.
[G]
[D] Down by the river in the full moon light we'll be falling in love in the middle of the night just
moving slow.
You and me going fishing in the dark, lying on our backs and counting the stars [G] where
the cool grass [D] grows.
Down by the river in the full moon light.
[N]
