G5 F#5 E5
       Daddy'll sing bass
G5 F#5     E5         G5 F#5  E5      
 I took my boat for a car
G5 F#5       E5        G5 F#5  E5    
 I took that car for a ride
E5    D5            C#5                   C
I was trying to get somewhere but now I'm following the 
G5     F#5     E5
traces of your fingernails
     G5   F#5      E5
That run along the windshield

(Repeat 4x):
        C       Fmaj7 
On the boat of car
