F If at some point we all succumb F For goodness sake let us be young F Because time gets harder to outrun F And I'm nobody, I'm not done F With a cool cool breeze and dirty knees F I rest on childhood memories F We all got old at breakneck speed F Slow it down, go easy on me Bb C Go easy on me Bb C Aaah aaah ah-ah aaah Bb C aaah aaah ah-ah ah, F ah-ah aahh Chorus: F Bb C Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on F Bb C Grow your hair out long, come on, come on F Put a t-shirt on Bb C F Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong F If it's up and after you F What do you suppose that you would do? F You're all whacked out from lack of sleep F You blame it on the friends you keep F You want to do things differently F And do them independently F We all got old at breakneck speed F Slow it down, go easy on me Bb C Go easy on me Bb C Aaah aaah ah-ah aaah Bb C aaah aaah ah-ah ah, F ah-ah aahh Chorus: F Bb C Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on F Bb C Grow your hair out long, come on, come on F Put a t-shirt on Bb C F Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong F Bb C Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on F Bb C Grow your hair out long, come on, come on F Put a t-shirt on Bb C F Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong Bridge: Bb F Does holy water make you pure? Bb F Submerged your vision's just obscured Bb F You're a lot like me Bb F In up to our knees Bb F C In over your chest is way too deep Chorus: F Bb C Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on F Bb C Grow your hair out long, come on, come on F Put a t-shirt on Bb C F Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong F Bb C Put a wetsuit on, come on, come on F Bb C Grow your hair out long, come on, come on F Put a t-shirt on Bb C F Do me wrong, do me wrong, do me wrong This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.

Great song! I found that the -3 chords were by far easiest to play; however, instead of then putting a capo on fret 3, I put one on fret 2, because it just sounds the most authentic to me. It was a little deeper than fret 3, and suited my voice better. I use a concert ukulele, and highly suggest learning to play this song!
Ahhh I love this song! Thanks so much for posting it!
