(Note: Emily plays this song on a 
banjo, as near as I can tell. These 
chords are merely the implied
of the banjo notes. Also, to 
reproduce the sound exactly, this 
song should be played with a capo on
 the first
just moving the chords up a little.)

          G        C
I?m gonna clear my head,
          G
I?m gonna drink that sun.

    G       C        G
The saddest sight my eyes can see
        D                          
Is that big ball of orange sinking 
C              G
slyly down the trees.
G                   C            
Sittin? in a broken circle while 
    G
you rest upon my knee,
     A                          
This perfect moment will soon be 
 D
leaving me.

G                  C        
Suzanne calls from Boston, the 
            G
coffee's hot, the corn is high,
         D                       
And that same sun that warms your 
            C                   G
heart will suck the good earth dry.
G                   C          G
With everything its opposite enough 
to keep you crying,

   0 A                              
Or keep this old world spinning with
     D
 a twinkle in its eye.

            G
Get out the map,
            C                G
Get out the map and lay your finger 
anywhere down.
                            C      
We'll leave the figuring to those 
              D7
we pass on our way out of town.
                G            C    
Don't drink the water, there seems
                 G
 to be something ailing everyone.
                   C
I?m gonna clear my head,
          Fsus2
I?m gonna drink that sun.
          C                        
I?m gonna love you good and strong 
          D7               G
while our love is good and young.

Joni left for South Africa a few 
years ago
And then Beth took a job all the way
 over on the west coast
And me I?m still trying to live half
 a life on the road
          A
Seems I?m heavier by the year
    (heavier by the year)
     D
And heavier by the load
(heavier by the load)

Why do we hurtle ourselves through 
every inch of time and space?
I must say around some corner I can 
sense a resting place.
With every lesson learned a line 
upon your beautiful face,
We'll amuse ourselves one day with 
these memories we'll trace

Get out the map,
Get out the map and lay your finger 
anywhere down.
We'll leave the figuring to those we
 pass on our way out of town.
Don't drink the water, there seems 
to be something ailing everyone.
I?m gonna clear my head,
(I?m gonna clear my head)
I?m gonna drink that sun,
      (I?m gonna drink that sun)
I?m gonna love you good and strong 
while our love is good and young.

G                  C
I?m gonna clear my head,
          Fsus2
I?m gonna drink that sun,
          C                        
I?m gonna love you good and strong 
          D7               G
while our love is good and young.
