Siesta Key Forever
Spring break halo and Sarasota sun on your face.
G major103 BPM4/43:14top-downSaltwater State of Mindhigh confidence
Verse 1
Pulled off I-75
Windows down, that salt air high
Beat-up cooler in the backseat
Riverview pride on my white tee
Met you laughing in the sand
Flip-flops, Red Solo in your hand
Someone yelled, "We're gonna miss curfew!"
We just laughed, said, "Who asked you?"
Chorus
This is our spring break halo
Sarasota sun on my face
Hands up, hearts in the same boat
We ain't tryin' to play it safe
From Riverview nights to the Gulf Coast breeze
We're wild, we're young, we're free
Singin' hey, hey, hey
Siesta Key forever with me (oh yeah)
Verse 2
Bonfire glow on that shoreline
Your name traced where the waves climb
Cheap shades, packed bar, last call
We turned that parking lot to a roll call
Tailgates, headlights, loud crew
Somebody screamed, "This song's so you!"
Every word, we knew every line
Turnin' this stretch of sand to our hometown sign
Chorus
This is our spring break halo
Sarasota sun on my face
Hands up, hearts in the same boat
We ain't tryin' to play it safe
From Riverview nights to the Gulf Coast breeze
We're wild, we're young, we're free
Singin' hey, hey, hey
Siesta Key forever with me (hey!)
Bridge
One day we'll be drivin' kids past this water
Sayin', "We once did all the crazy things you dream"
But right now it's just you and me
Final Chorus
This is our spring break halo
Sarasota sun on my face
Hands up, hearts in the same boat
We ain't tryin' to play it safe
From Riverview nights to the Gulf Coast breeze
We're wild, we're young, we're free
Singin' hey, hey, hey
Siesta Key forever with me
Yeah, hey, hey, hey
Siesta Key forever with me

Generated from the chord chart. These are real guitar shapes for the chords we detected, not a transcription of what was played on the record.
Raw note map (experimental)
This is the unfiltered pitch detection across the whole mix — vocals, bass and drums included — mapped onto a fretboard. It is not a playable arrangement and no one should try to read it as one. It is here only because it is the raw material everything else was built from.
Download note mapA lead sheet, not a full score. The melody line has been reduced automatically from the recording and paired with the detected chords. Expect the shape of the tune to be right and the details to be approximate.
