E
We went to the beach
Every year, the middle of June
A
Tighter than a can of sardines
E
And we went to the beach
We fought in the back
A
"Y'all smell the salt of the beach?"
B
Well, it was double beds
C#m
With a kitchenette
A
Bedspreads of sea-foam green
B C#m
It was sunburns and taking turns
E B
On boogie boards we'd bring
C#m E
Even if we spent every single cent to stay across the street
E
We went to the beach
verse 2
E
We mowed a few yards
I filled a coffee can with some Benjamins
A
Just a couple of friends
E A
Barely seventeen
E
And we went to the beach
And in the middle of March
A
Partied so hard
We could barely remember a thing
B C#m
It was PBRs and tiki bars
E B A
Don't take my fake I.D
B C#m
It was cigarettes, girls we just met
E A
And making out on lifeguard seats
B C#m E A
And those polaroids of me and the boys is all the proof I need
E
And we went to the beach

Brown-golden bands

Of sand all in the sheets
