guitar tabs lyrics
Based around the chords submitted by David McDougal(great job man!)
but with some of the fancy bits added and stuff. I've included for
one guitar or two.
This is not dead on by any means, but it sounds pretty close to me.
Also, I'm a really messy tabber, so apologies for mistakes i've made
and difficulties you may have reading/understanding it.

C F C
Roaming the camp ground up by the lake where we swam.
F C
We were hunting for snakes,
F C
But we couldn't find them.
C
Surrounded by nothing,
F C
But the nothing's surrounded by us.
F C
But it's just me in my room,
F C
With my eyes shut.
(Chorus)
Am C
Oh when I was seventeen,
F C
My mother said to me
Am C F C
Don't stop imagining The day that you do is the day that you die.
Am C
Now I pull a wanton carriage,
F C
Instead of the horses, grazing along.
Am C
I was having fun.
F C
We were all having fun.
Chords: Am C F C (x2)

C F C
My brain kicking faster than I can, but not fast enough.
F C
Who is there to talk to
F C
That won't lock me up?
C F C
At least God doesn't judge me by the thoughts that aren't mine.
F C
The snakes I couldn't find,
F C
I don't want to find.

Ohhhhh

NOTE: in the chorus, I normally use a picking pattern type thing
and tend to walk down the C to Am 'cause I like walk downs :)
IF YOU HAVE 2 GUITARS/ARE LAYERING OR WHATEVER:
for the picking bits to be more similar to the the CD:
|----------8-----12---12-8--------8--------------------------|
|----8h10---10-------------8h10----10-8----------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
and same for the other bit:
|---------15--17-15----15-----15-17--------------------------|
|----17--------------17-----17---------17--------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------|
|-17---15----15-------------15-----------------------------------|
|----------17----17-14--17------17-------17--16--17--------------|
|-----------------------------------------------------------17---|
|----------------------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------------------|
(I haven't put the number of times to play each note in this bit
because it's not too hard to figure out and with double figures
it looks messy and can get confusing!)
