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