🎸 Verse 1:
N.C.
One of these days I'm gonna take a vacation
N.C.
To a quiet and a peaceful shore
N.C.
And I'll cool my feet in those crystal waters
N.C.
Where I won't have to work anymore



N.C.

N.C.
Till I can't stand up all alone
N.C.
I must lay my head down on one strong shoulder
N.C.
'Cause I can't stand up all alone
