[Verse]
C F
Catfish and color TVs, kindly company
C Am F G
Saltwater dreams and nicotine keep me living right
C F
Shadows are growing longer now and they’re bringing on the night
C G F C
But it keeps my brain from thinking about the things that passed me by
[Chorus]
F G C
It’s seventy-five degrees out on the water
F G C
And its 3’ to 5’ with a steady southern breeze
F G C Am
But I sure could use a storm or two to help these wounds to heal
Dm F G
Get back on the right side of the reel
[Verse]
C F
Scraping off the paraffin, climbing up my stringer
C Am F G
That five-foot ten taught me when to chase them or to run
C F
Now, the crickets sing the chorus of the way things used to be
C G F C
Back when the reds were biting and you were still right here with me
[Chorus]
F G C
But it’s seventy-five degrees out on the water
F G C
And its 3’ to 5’ with a steady southern breeze
F G C Am
And I sure could use a storm or two to help these wounds to heal
Dm F G
Get back on the right side of the reel
[Solo]
C
F
C Am F G
[Bridge]
Dm F
Coming with the leaving, bringing on the feeling
C G
That the current and the winds may be too strong
Dm F G
Every time you go something deep inside me knows it won’t be long
[Chorus]
F G C
'Cause it’s seventy-five degrees out on the water
F G C
And its 3’ to 5’ with a steady southern breeze
F G C Am
And I sure could use a storm or two to help these wounds to heal
Dm F G
Get back on the right side of the reel
F G
Gotta get back on the right side....
