Dan's Song Lyrics
by Frank Turner
So, the other version that's up here is too hard for me as a beginner, so I worked
an easier version for people who like me aren't hugely bothered about it being in
the right key, so long as we can play it.
Me and my friend Dan are gonna get some beers and then
We're gonna go down to the park and drink them there
We'll bask out in the sun, bring a guitar and play some songs
Call up our friends and invite them out to share
What might be the last weekend of the summer
Cause September's getting colder as it goes
And we haven't done enough of this simple kind of stuff
this year. It's clear we're getting older and it shows
Work weeks make us weary now and school's a distant memory
It's easy to ask questions of ourselves,
Like: where it is we're going now and what we have to show
For all the sunny days shut up in the shells
Of expectations of our ultimate directions
And the stations that we should have reached by now
When we haven't read the script and our tender wings are clipped
And we're scared we might be letting someone down
So we listen to these heartbreak songs when nothing's really wrong
And we smile when we're asked and say we're fine
But we're drifting through our middle days, we're creeping into middle age
Setting in our ways... But now it's time
To decide now its time to draw a line
In the sand and ask what's more important than days like today
So grab some beers call your friends and meet us here
In the summer park with me and my friend Dan
