Verse:
A                           D
  We used to go down to the beach at night
A                          D
  Fireflies dancing in the promenade lights
Bm7                                    E
  Ah those rock n roll bands used to really swing
A                             D
  And I'd do the foxtrot with sweet Christine
C#m7                             Bm7
  Speakin' to me with her gentle hands
C#m7                    Bm7
  Fly on down to Wonderland

Chorus:
A                E
  Deep water I'm caught up in its flow
D                           E
If I'm in o-ver my head I'd be the last to know
D      A    D      A
  Deep water  deep water

Verse:
A                                   D
  They closed down the doors to the Trocadero
A                              D
  And I came back looking just like a ghost
Bm7                         E
  Posters are scattered all over the stairs
A                      D
  Nobody reads them so nobody cares
C#m7                         Bm7
  Kids all retired when they reached twenty-one
C#m7                     Bm7
  Really just ain't my i-dea of fun

Chorus:
A                E
  Deep water I'm caught up in its flow
D                           E
If I'm in o-ver my head I'd be the last to know

  Sitting out on the Palm Beach Road
Fmaj7
  I'm so drunk and the car won't go
D                    E11            A
  My crazy eyes keep looking out to sea
Amaj7           '
  The sunday drivers are cruising round
Fmaj7           '
  Wish they'd all go back to town
D                 E
  What do they ex-pect to find

A                    D
  Sure as hell ain't peace of mind......

Chorus:
A                E
  Deep water I'm caught up in its flow
D                           E
If I'm in o-ver my head I'd be the last to know
D      A                 D      A
  Deep water (deep water)  deep water (deep water)
