Intro
A# Gm7 Gm C F
A# Gm
When I went to your town on the wide open shore
C F A#
Oh, I must confess, I was drawn, I was drawn to the ocean
F Gm
I thought it spoke to me, it said,
C Dm A#
"Look at us, we're not churches, not schools,
C Dm A#
Not skating ponds, swimming pools,
Gm
And we have lost people, haven't we though?"
C F
Oh, that's what the ocean can know of a body
A# C
And that's when I came back to town
Am
This town is a song about you
A# C Dm A#
You don't know how lucky you are
C Dm A# C
You don't know how much I adore you
Dm A# C Gm C F
You are the welcoming back from the ocean
Gm
I went back to the ocean today
C F A#
With my books and my papers, I went to the rocks by the ocean
F Gm
But the weather changed quickly
C Dm A#
Oh, the ocean said, "What are you trying to find,
C Dm A#
I don't care, I'm not kind, I have bludgeoned your sailors,
Gm
I've spat out their keepsakes"
C F
Oh, it's ashes to ashes, but always the ocean
A# C
But the ocean can't come to this town
Am
This town is a song about you
A# C Dm A#
You don't know how lucky you are
C Dm A# C
You don't know how much I adore you
Dm A# C Gm C F
You are the welcoming back from the ocean
INTERLUDE: A# C Dm A# Gm C F
La la lee la la, le la la le la la la (3x) la
A# C
And the ones that can know you so well
Am
Are the ones that can swallow you whole
A# C Dm A#
I have a good and I have an evil
C Dm A# C
I thought the ocean, the ocean thought nothing
Dm A# C Gm C F A#
You are the welcoming back from the ocean
Dm Gm
I didn't go back today
C F A#
I wanted to show you that I was more land than water
Dm Gm
I went to pick flowers
C Dm A#
I brought them to you, look at me, look at them
C Dm A#
With their salt up the stem, but you frowned
Gm
When I smiled and I tried to arrange them
C F
You said, "Let me tell you the song of this town"
A# C
You said, "Everything closes at five.
Am
After that, well, you just got the bars."
A# C Dm A#
"You don't know how precious you are
C Dm A# C
Walking around with your little shoes dangling
Dm A# C Gm
I am the one who lives with the ocean.
C
"It's where we came from, you know."
Am
"And sometimes I just want to go back.
A# C Dm A#
After a day, we'll drink 'til we're drowning
C Dm A# C
Walk to the ocean, wade in with our work-boots
Dm A# C F
Wade in our work-boots, try to finish the job."
A# C Dm A#
"You don't know how precious you are
C Dm A# C
I am the one who lives with the ocean
Dm A# Dm
You don't know how, I am the one
A# C Dm Gm
You don't know how, I am the one"
