Capo: 3rd
Standard Tuning


Csus2
i need a new song, shift it all around, like the ocean
           G
when the riptide gets you down
Csus2
take some, from the ones you love, in the old town
            G
when the riptide gets you down

D
sing i can still breathe i can still walk
A
i can still see children walking up the dock
G
i remember when i carved my name into this cedar tree
D
sing while i'm walking sammys on the rocks
A
with a new reel flashing casting as he talks
D7
he came home from the city
              G
when they choked out all of his dreams

D
and i guess you could say that this is me
D
and i guess that these folks are the only ones i believe

A
everywhere i go i'm going to the ocean
A
every river flows into the ocean
A
the water in my soul is going to the ocean
A
i sing the great unknown i'm singing to the ocean

D
sing i can still breathe i can still walk
A
i can still see children walking up the dock
G
i remember when i carved my name into this cedar tree
D
sing while i'm walking sammys on the rocks
A
with a new reel flashing casting as he talks
D7
he came home from the city
              G
when they choked out all of his dreams

Csus2
i need a new song, shift it all around, like the ocean
           G
when the riptide gets you down
Csus2
take some, from the ones you love, in the old town
            G
when the riptide gets you down
