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