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