walk in the woods
June 21, 2008 at 10:58 pm | In family, songs with words | Leave a CommentI wrote a little song about walking in the woods with the kids (which you can read about here). the tune (so far) is a straight-up rip-off from a tune Death Cab’s new ablum (which I just got and enjoy). so here goes:
walk in the woods (tune: death cab’s Grapevine Fires)
(Am) last day of (C) spring
a walk in the (G) woods
a little (D) fresh air
might do us (Am) good
the three of (C) us
a walk in the (G) woods
a walk in the (Em) woods
decend the hill
at a quiet pace
stop for each bloom
in this magic place
decend the hill
at a quiet pace
at a quiet pace
(a walk in the woods…) Am C G D
came to a tree
across the way
the brightest bird
a red and black display
he flies away
as the day turns gray
as the day turns gray
climb the hill
to find the falls
splash some rocks
bounce off the walls
somewhere I hear
the red bird call
the red bird call
(a walk in the woods…)
it’s getting dark
the long day ends
lets hold hands
while we ascend
head back home
as better friends
as better friends
