1. You Can Count On Me
D G
Know you can count on me
D G
Know you can count on me
D G
Know you can count on me
G D A
To get so up for it
D G
Know you can count on me
D G
Know you can count on me
D G
Know you can count on me
G D A
To get so up for it
D G
Know you can count on me
G D A
I'll be so up for it
G A Bm(7)
Know at least I'll try
Bm D G
Who are you if you're not up for it
A7 Bm F#m
When are you if I'm not up for it
G A Bm D
Want to put a bubble round you
G
Like a force field switch
A7 Bm F#m
Keep you secure just a little bit
G A Bm D G
But I know a secret child is just a silly trick
A7 Bm F#m
Who grows up to lose that force field switch
G A Bm D G
In between a hands on and a hands off apprenticeship
A7 Bm F#m
Where are you if I'm not up for it
G A
I'll wake up for it
D G
Know you can count on me
D G
Know you can count on me
D G
Know you can count on me
G D A
To get so up for it
D G
Know you can count on me
G D A
I'll be so up for it
G A Bm(7)
Know at least I'll try

4. Surfer's Hymn
B
B E B F# B
When there are hard times I'll step it up
E B F# B
When there are dangerous times I'll spot them up
E B F# B
I'll take my time to make up my own mind
E C#/F B D#m C#m B
To set it up when the times are calling for a steady creed
E B F#
How do I know it's time?
E B F#
Even if I've got mine
E B F# E G#m F# G#m
'Cause if the wise do know what wis dom is
G#m B F# E B F#
If I could err on every good side every time
B F#
Out on the water
E F#7
A rider can ready
B F#
Though waves comes crashing
E F#7
A good board can steady
B F# E F#7
I wouldn't ever want to bet upon the balance on what's going on
B F# E F#7
Would I? Would I? Would I? Would I?
B
B
Stay
C#m
What's in my way?
B
What's in my way?
F#7
Got to have it to get over it
B
Stay
C#m
What's in my way?
B
What's in my way?
F#7
Got to have it to get over it
B
Stay
C#m
What's in my way?
B
What's in my way?
F#7
Got to have it to get over it
B
B E B F# B
To have an empty fortune when I fear
E B F# B
To have a deadly weapon, as it's called
E B F# B E
Which is an answer to a challenge made by anything
C#/F B D#m C#m B
Then to always know just what things violence needs
How do I know its time?
Even if I got mine
'Cause if the wise do know what wisdom is
If I could err on every good side every time
Out on the water
A rider can ready
Though waves comes crashing
A good board can steady
I wouldn't ever want to bet upon the balance on what's going on
Would I? Would I? Would I? Would I?
F#7 B
Why wouldn I?

I see it up ahead
I've seen it all behind
I see it at the sides
Though I've no point to try
But if I could do
Then what I would do to you
I see it in the day
I see it in the night
I see it all the time
Though I might not desire
But if I could do
Then what I would do to you

One is gained

And every upon every upon every

I think about and hope it's all worked out to either end

Some might say that

Or natural than wanting to win
