Fish

D
I took a short vacation to the Gulf of Mexico
D
Everyday I'd see this fellow with his tackle box and pole
         G
And he'd fish, and he'd fish
        D
All day long
D
So one day I went out walking and when I got down to his spot
D
Me and him we got to talking I said have you ever thought
           G
About what you are gonna do
              D/A
with your life?

       A                              G
I said I'm about to share with you my secret to success
G                               A
So you can go make something of yourself

G
You can sell these fish you're catching You can buy yourself a boat
D
Hard work and dedication and the next thing that you know
G
If you reinvest your money you'll be captain of the fleet
A
You'll be sitting pretty down on easy street
        G                    G7
You can do anything that you wish
                 D/A   D/G  D/F# D/E
He said you mean fish?

D
His simple words of wisdom hit me right between the eyes
D
And it really got me thinking about the way I live my life
               G
Cause I'd just work And I'd work
        D
All day long
D
So I asked myself a question that I knew the answer to
D
Is success a second mortgage on a big house with a pool?
           G
Or is it a chair and salty air
            D
wetting the line

A                                  G
That advice I tried to give him to take him to the top
G                                   A
Is really nothing more than just a crock

G
You can sell these fish you're catching You can buy yourself a boat
D
Hard work and dedication and the next thing that you know
G
If you reinvest your money you'll be captain of the fleet
A
You'll be sitting pretty down on easy street
        G                     G7
You can do anything that you wish
                 D/A
He said you mean fish?

A                                    G
So I went and bought some tackle and a bucket full of bait
A                          G                                        G7
You can find here most everyday with my chair sitting there next to him
D
And we'd just fish
D
Yeah, we'd just fish
     D/A        D/G      D/F#   D/E
yeah fish fish fish fish fish
