[inuana123]

By any chance could you send me the lyrics? I almost have it memorized but there are a few parts i cant get.

[justplainzach]

@inuana123

Remember that time when we were not much more than nine?

You gave me some paper and I drew you a flower.

I added some snowflakes, a snowman, some 'Santa Claus' cupcakes.

All in all, it took me just about an hour and I said,

CHORUS:

“I don't know if lilies even grow in the winter time,

but in my mind they do and they grow for me and for you."

[justplainzach]

A few years passed. it was strange: our friendship seemed to last.

Spring turned to summer. Summer turned to fall.

Remember it now? We trudged past the Johnson's cow,

dug through the snow, gave you a lily we found under the red brick wall, and I said,

(Chorus.)

After high school, we kind of lost touch.

And I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about it much.

I never thought that I'd see you again.

You were a real important friend.

[justplainzach]

As winter approached, I got a package in the mail.

An eight-inch by four-inch amalgamation.

It was sent from a far and distant land...

a land called California, opened the letter and it began,

(Chorus x3.)

[inuana123]

@justplainzach Thanks a bunch! ^^

[3325js]

T a little lost in some places

[3325js]

Hey thanks, and actually yea the lyrics would be great too, I tried playing through it and go a

[3325js]

hey since there are alot of orkila guitar players commenting on this video, i thought this might be a good place to ask. you know the song orkila, orkila, let me tell you how i feel. You have given me..... can someone give me the chords for that song. I haven 't been to orkila for like three years, but i'm coming back this summer as a counselor. thanks guys

[3325js]

@3325js and also if any one has the chords for "it's our last chance (to praise the day)" that would be great. Also if there are any other songs you think i should learn let me know

[taylordan542]

@3325js chords to last chance! verses: Em D C D, Em D C D, C D C D G. chorus: G C G C G C G C.... if that makes sense.. i also have the lyrics if you were to need them!

[s1mple2010]

Allright people

If you like this then you can hear myself s1mple ft hayley.m perform our own version of Duffy's leaving you.The chorus is sung beautifully and the the rap verses I wrote to be a conversation beetween 2 lovers.They explain cheating getting away with it in the past and what the future holds for them.I hope you can take the time out to listen and give feedback.You can also listen to more of my lyrics at myspace search s1mpl.

Thanks again

i am so excited!!!! this year is my first year with Camp Orkila as a Horse Master and i am super excited :)

[Tomikaze17]

what's with all this hate from the northwester kids? it says up in the description that it started at orkila, but it really doesn't matter . . . it's like saying you can't listen to a band if you don't live in their hometown . . . this song is too good to be contained by any boundaries of time or space

[RoseCairine]

GOD, I remember when they revealed this song at the Orkila campfire. Everyone went back to their cabins singing "I don't know if lilies even grow in the wintertime..." Drove all of our counselors crazy singing it for the rest of the week. xD That was so amazing. I love Orkila. Loowits! <3

[1alex2brook3sammy]

[elmotejera]

Hey Zach, it's Max. I had you as a good about 5 or 6 years ago and I did your goose poop skit last summer as a loowit. I recently picked up the guitar and I was hoping you could somehow write this song out? With tabs or something?

[RayMarocco]

hey, i was in the goose poop skit too!

[justplainzach]

Hey Max. It's been a really long time since this comment, but I hope you're doing well. I totally remember you, by the way!

In the case that you still care, the chords are C F Am D throughout the verses and choruses and C F C F C F F G for the bridge! Practice and enjoy guitar, sir. It'll be one of the most rewarding choices you make. -Zach

[jukata1986]

Great Zach, really great. I remember you singing it with Jay and for sure it's one of my best memories of Camp Orkila'06. Long live Camp Orkila. BIG D

[pteren]

[hawaiiansoccer4]

OMG! i love this song!

[jordycovington]

That little kid was awesome - I remember the guy that waves around the 'Fall' sign near the end - probably only because my friends and I considered him the gangster of camp, lol.

[twiztedcandy]

Another thing, I remember that little kid with the blue sweater. He was a hilarious dancer.

[justplainzach]

Yeah. His name is Ben. He is great.

[twiztedcandy]
