verse 1
C F
We bought a tent and some sleeping bags
G
And we jumped in the truck
C F
North bound on I-35

Before the sun came up

We stopped for lunch in Canal Park

Passing through Duluth

Rolled into Bayfield, Wisconsin

And there she was

Madeline Island

verse 2
C F
We left our cares on the mainland
G
Boarded a ferry boat
C F
We saw La Pointe for the first time
G
And we felt right at home
C F
Drove out to Big Bay State Park
G
Picked out our campsite
C F
We settled in underneath the stars
F G
And there we were
Chorus
C F
Out there in the great Lake Superior
Am G
Right across the bay
C F
We sat back, put our feet up and there we were
Am G
Half a world away
Am F
Where the waves turned the cliffs into sea caves
C G
With every passing day
Dm F
It was all a blur, but there we were
G C
On Madeline Island
C F F G
Madeline Island

verse 3
C F
We left our shadows on the lake shore
G
We soaked up all the sights
C F
About drowned in a downpour
G
But for the northern lights
C F
We shot the breeze under pine trees
G
And sat around the fire
C F
We hit the hay beneath the Milky Way
F G
And there we were
Chorus
C F
Out there in the great Lake Superior
Am G
Right across the bay
C F
We sat back, put our feet up and there we were
Am G
Half a world away
Am F
Where the waves turned the cliffs into sea caves
C G
With every passing day
Dm F
It was all a blur, but there we were

On Madeline Island
