THE SAME BOAT

(Eric Stone)

D G D

Juan Valdez is on her mind, the boss is on her case Jim from the mailroom is right on time,

G A G D

To share the coffee break, She says, “What’s wrong with this picture,

G D G D G A

We’re going nowhere fast our future’s a permanent fixture hung on the wall of the past.”

CHORUS:

G D

Now they’re in the same boat, trying hard to keep their dreams afloat

A D G

What they need is an antidote to the life they hate Oh, Oh, Oh, they’re in the same boat

D A G/A D

They wanna live the lyrics Buffett wrote and trade in their winter coats for bathing suits and shades

Coffee break’s over way too soon, it’s time to get back to the grind

She says, “I always love talking to you, I wish we just had some more time

G D G D

He says, “I’ve got this crazy idea, I’m sick of this job and the snow,

Laughing about the rat race that they left behind and won

They traded in their winter coats for bathing suits and shades
