[chet]
least there’s a couple of ropes

[jake]
i need this to be over

[chet]
if you want to find him, this is the only way for gettin’ across this

[jake]
where is he?

[chet] (spoken)
jake. we’ve been on this river, down in town
(sung)
remember the time
canoeing clinch river

[jake]
yeah, me with a six pack
you with the oar!

[chet]
remember we tipped
when our boat hit the rapids
and we spent all afternoon
fishin’ beers from the shore
up here
my body best deliver
50 feet over the rapids
the closest i wanna get

balance
or cannonball into clinch river
and though we forgot to bring a six pack
we’ll end up just as wet

(spoken)
come on, twitch-ll. get it movin’. one boot in front of the other

(sung, overlapping)
remember the time
we swore to join the circus

master the trapeze and a high wire act
remember we stretched a rope between houses
i’d jump
the timing exact

[jake] (overlapping)
remember the time
should’ve joined the
circus
my bags were packed
stretched
a rope between houses
i’d catch you
the timing exact

[jake]
up here

[chet]
i swear i feel eleven

[jake & chet]
50 feet over the rapids

[jake]
i see the goal line ahead

[chet]
balance
the tightrope tween hades and heaven
don’t know what’s above me

[jake]
don’t look at what’s below me
[chet]
look forward instead
keep your eyes from the sun
don’t look any higher
than what’s straight ahead

and you’ll make it across
the challenge is fun
we’re building character
so said our teachers
so said our boss

[chet]
keep your eyes from the sun
don’t look any higher
than what’s straight ahead
and your dreams have a shot
the hard part is done
your life has been chosen
the best and the only
choice that you’ve got

[jake]
remember the time
we swore we saw the ocean
looked at the atlantic
and the chesapeake bay
remember we climbed
to the top of north mountain
and swore we saw the ocean
300 miles away?

someday
i’d like to see the ocean
i’d rather sooner than later
before i forget
balance
is not what will set things in motion
we’re living life as if it’s over
but im not finished yet

[chet]
work like a dog

[jake]
drink like a fish

[chet]
set your sights on goals
you can accomplish

[jake & chet]
company men
find success find dignity
when they settle for less
up here
my body best deliver
50 feet over the rapids
the closest im gonna get
balance
or cannonball into clinch river
and when you accept what’s laid before you
the less you’ll regret

[frances] (overlapping)
row, stroke
row, stroke
row, stroke
row, stroke

[pete] (overlapping)
there’s gonna be fire
there’s gonna be noise
there’s gonna be h-ll to pay
for the burnt part boys

[jake & chet] (overlapping)
keep your eyes from the sun
don’t look any higher
look straight ahead
and there’s
less risk of loss
the hard part is done
the choice was made for you
look straight ahead
look straight ahead
look straight ahead
look straight ahead

[pete] (overlapping)
there’s gonna be fire
there’s gonna be noise
there’s gonna be fire
fire, noise
there’s gonna be
fire, noise
h-ll to pay

[frances] (overlapping)
row stroke
row stroke
row stroke
row stroke
row stroke
i can get to
the top of the mountain
row stroke
row stroke
row stroke
row stroke

[jake, chet, pete, & frances]
and you’ll make it across
