Sunburnt and Smiling
Coconut sweet and all right with the world.
All songs / David Alan Graham
Coconut sweet and all right with the world.

Sand stuck in my flip-flops
Salt drying on my skin
You're laughing at my sunburn
I just pour more laughter in
Paper cup
Melted ice
Lime wedge hanging on the rim
You say "Turn that mirror down"
I just roll the window in the wind
We got towels in the backseat
Sea shells on the dash
Little cash, big plans
And an afternoon to splash
You say "This might be trouble"
I say "That's my favorite kind"
Let's get lost between the shoreline
And the back roads in our minds
We're sunburnt and smiling
Yeah we're all right
Coconut sweet on your lips tonight (oh yeah)
Got the whole crew shouting "Life's our song"
Singing way off key but we sing along
With the tide rolling in
Worries rolling away
Best kind of broke on a perfect day
Sunburnt and smiling
That's our kind of shining
Sunburnt and smiling today
Cooler full of half-melted dreams
Chips crushed in a grocery bag
You tape your sunglasses twice
Still they slide and always sag
We're waving at the locals
Like we've lived here all our lives
Parking crooked by the dunes
Kicking sand as if it's high tide
We got names carved in driftwood
Stories we ain't told
Tan lines, wild times
Turning minutes into gold
You say "Keep this in your memory"
I say "Let it stain your soul"
If we're chasing something better
This might be the thing we stole
We're sunburnt and smiling
Yeah we're all right
Coconut sweet on your lips tonight (hey!)
Got the whole crew shouting "Life's our song"
Singing way off key but we sing along
With the tide rolling in
Worries rolling away
Best kind of broke on a perfect day
Sunburnt and smiling
That's our kind of shining
Sunburnt and smiling today
Who needs a map when the road hugs the water
Who needs a plan when we've got each other (oh-oh)
Label every freckle as a souvenir
If this is wrong
Let's stay right here
We're sunburnt and smiling
Yeah we're all right
Coconut sweet on your lips tonight
Got the whole crew shouting "Life's our song"
Singing way off key but we sing along (sing along)
With the tide rolling in
Worries rolling away
Best kind of broke on a perfect day
Sunburnt and smiling

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.
