Intro
G Em7 Em A D
G Em
When I went to your town on the wide open shore
A D G
Oh, I must confess, I was drawn, I was drawn to the ocean
D Em
I thought it spoke to me, it said,
A Bm G
"Look at us, we're not churches, not schools,
A Bm G
Not skating ponds, swimming pools,
Em
And we have lost people, haven't we though?"
A D
Oh, that's what the ocean can know of a body
G A
And that's when I came back to town
F#m
This town is a song about you
G A Bm G
You don't know how lucky you are
A Bm G A
You don't know how much I adore you
Bm G A Em A D
You are the welcoming back from the ocean
Em
I went back to the ocean today
A D G
With my books and my papers, I went to the rocks by the ocean
D Em
But the weather changed quickly
A Bm G
Oh, the ocean said, "What are you trying to find,
A Bm G
I don't care, I'm not kind, I have bludgeoned your sailors,
Em
I've spat out their keepsakes"
A D
Oh, it's ashes to ashes, but always the ocean
G A
But the ocean can't come to this town
F#m
This town is a song about you
G A Bm G
You don't know how lucky you are
A Bm G A
You don't know how much I adore you
Bm G A Em A D
You are the welcoming back from the ocean
INTERLUDE: G A Bm G Em A D
La la lee la la, le la la le la la la (3x) la
G A
And the ones that can know you so well
F#m
Are the ones that can swallow you whole
G A Bm G
I have a good and I have an evil
A Bm G A
I thought the ocean, the ocean thought nothing
Bm G A Em A D G
You are the welcoming back from the ocean
Bm Em
I didn't go back today
A D G
I wanted to show you that I was more land than water
Bm Em
I went to pick flowers
A Bm G
I brought them to you, look at me, look at them
A Bm G
With their salt up the stem, but you frowned
Em
When I smiled and I tried to arrange them
A D
You said, "Let me tell you the song of this town"
G A
You said, "Everything closes at five.
F#m
After that, well, you just got the bars."
G A Bm G
"You don't know how precious you are
A Bm G A
Walking around with your little shoes dangling
Bm G A Em
I am the one who lives with the ocean.
A
"It's where we came from, you know."
F#m
"And sometimes I just want to go back.
G A Bm G
After a day, we'll drink 'til we're drowning
A Bm G A
Walk to the ocean, wade in with our work-boots
Bm G A D
Wade in our work-boots, try to finish the job."
G A Bm G
"You don't know how precious you are
A Bm G A
I am the one who lives with the ocean
Bm G Bm
You don't know how, I am the one
G A Bm Em
You don't know how, I am the one"
