Okay, it's council meeting day
C G
Deep breath, what will the others say?
G7 G7 C
When I present my new idea before the council
C G
Okay, just five more minutes now
C G
"Hello, I'm Geir!", no they already know
G7 F G7 C
Just say what's on your mind, show the drawing and you'll be fine
[Chorus]
F G7
'Cause there's one thing we've been missing
G C
in this town for far too long
G7 G7 C
A place to dive for people who like diving, oh
F G7
I swear I'm going to make this town
G C
A brand new diving board
F F
It will be beautiful, fantastical, affordable and magical
G7 C
for Hamar town
[Verse]

Right here, can you see it too?

A nice board, I'm thinking grey and blue
A7 G
Will it be expensive? No!
A7 G
Will it be secure? Of course!

Convinced. We'll find the cash somehow.

Unanimous on three. One, two, three!

We'll help you build a diving board

Diving board!

Lets, lets build a diving board (I'm gonna build something great)

Hamar will get a diving board (A brand new diving board)

We have the council power to build the most (And I swear it's gonna be)

A diving board for Hamar Town!
