[Verse] 
G               Em
We can save our money
  G            Em
Invest it in a camper
G                Em
Drive across the country 
    G            Em
And turn around again
      G            Em 
We’ll decorate our camper
     G                Em
With strings of paper lanterns
G              Em
Hang a plastic panther
   G        Em
On our CB antenna
   G               Em
We putt across the country
         G                 Em 
With our windshield wipers squealing
G                     Em
There’s a road-side attraction
      G           Em
Let’s pull into a few spots
G             Em 
We can take a picture
       G             Em
Of our Rock and Roll Camper
G            Em
Leaning on a palm tree
   G             Em
Or half-way up a mountain.


[Chorus]
Em 
Part way through the tunnel
   Em/F
We lose our reception
   Em/F#
We made it through the Rockies
    Em/G
The sun in the sky above the water’s been waiting
    C
For you and for me in our Rock and Roll Camper to drop everything

And see the world

To see the world


[Verse]
G                 Em 
We might see a tornado
     G               Em
Or a flooded Baptist graveyard
G            Em
Maybe in the desert
      G            Em
We’ll find a dying lizard
   G                 Em
At night beneath the kudzu
    G                  Em
The crickets screaming murder
   G               Em
We got sand in the camper
         G              Em
From our quest for sand dollars
   G                Em
We try to cross the border
     G                Em
They search us for an hour
   G                 Em
We played catch with pebbles
  G                       Em
Until they finally let us through
   G             Em
We pull into the slow lane
    G            Em
Our camper radio blaring
    G               Em
“We came to take it up”
       G             Em
In our Rock and Roll Camper


[Chorus]
Em 
Half-way through the tunnel 
   Em/F
We lose our reception
   Em/F#
We made it through the Rockies
    Em/G
The sun in the sky above the water’s been waiting
                C
And I call it’s you and me versus the world

Armed with just a camper and a flash-busted camera
            G      Em
We can’t go wrong.
            G      Em
We can’t go wrong.
