Verse 1:
Em            D                C
The waves are pounding on the shore today
Em        D              C
The sun is shining on the sand
Em            D               C
And we’ve been swimming in the water
Em        D           C
We’ve been living off the land
Em            D          C
Yea, we’ve been breathing underwater
Em       D            C
With all those animals that can
Em        D        C
Hey, we are living underwater
Em          D         C
Yea, we are living off the land

Verse 2:
Em         D            C
Some say that Jesus had a daughter
Em         D               C
But I don’t guess he ever met her
Em          D             C
And she had never met her father
Em         D                   C
No, I guess this world couldn’t let her
Em         D            C
No, this world needed a martyr
Em            D        C
And, hey, it’s hard to understand
Em         D             C
But if you need to make a martyr
Em        D        C
You got to take away the man

Verse 3:
Em          D              C
One day my dove will be a dragon
Em      D       C
It’s so hard to understand
Em           D           C
All dragon wings and dragon fire
Em           D           C
Then dragon bones beneath the land
Em      D       C
     So tonight, when the clouds break
Em         D              C
With all the lightning and the thunder
Em               D             C
Hey, come find me ’neath the lights of the tiki bars, honey
Em          D           C
Hey, it’s Christmas down under


Chorus:
G         D              C
