                So she tells her man "lets go fishin"
F2      A#                  F
                Well go tommorow morning when the sun rise..
F2      A#                  F
                And then she says she wants to take her kids and (baby cries)
F2      A#                  F
                Thats her boy thats 12 and her daughter thats 4 with angel eyes
F2      A#                  F
                So they get there and the sun has barely risen
F2      A#                  F
                Decided on a spot where the fish is plentiful with the tide
F2      A#                  F
                Get out their poles daddy smiles and said the fish is jumpin
F2      A#                  F
                Then they heard a splash but it sounded bigger than fish size

And mom screams back "The baby was holdin your arm"
F#                     G#                     A#

F           F#          A#        G#
Something told mom to look toward the light
G       D               D#        F2    F#
But the sun wasn't yellow it had turned white
F           F#          A#        G#
So she listen and swam she swam for the light
G       D               D#        F2    F#
Like the Michelin man she swam with such might
F           F#          A#        G#
She spotted the baby and she was on her back
G       D               D#        F2    F#
Just as the light said "Sunrise was Heaven's track"
F           F#           A#       G#
She turned the baby over her eyes were still blue
G       D               D#        F2    F#
Baby had a smile and said... "I was waitin for you!"
