Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
            D
When you're rocked on the ocean
D                        A
Rocked up and down don't worry
            D
When you're spinning and turning
D                     A
Round and round don't worry
       F#m
You're just feeling seasick
       E
You're just feeling weak
     C#m
Your mind is confused
        D             D
And you can't seem to speak
              A       D
It's just the motion
              A       Esus4 E
It's just the motion

Verse 2:
         D
When the landlord is knocking
         D                   A
And your job is losing don't worry
         D
When the baby needs rocking
         D                           A
And your friends are confusing don't worry
       F#m
You're just feeling seasick
       E
You're just feeling weak
     C#m
Your mind is confused
        D             D
And you can't seem to speak
              A       D
It's just the motion
              A       D
It's just the motion


Bridge:
E          D
Blown by a hundred winds
C#m            B
Knocked down a hundred times
D           C#m      B
Rescued and carried along
E                        D
Beaten and half-dead and gone
         F#m      B           F#m         B
And it's only the pain that's keeping you sane
    F#m           B              E
And gives you the mind to travel on


Verse 3:
       D
Oh the motion won't leave you
      D                    A
Won't let you remain Don't worry
       D
It's a restless wind
      D                     A
And a sleepless rain, Don't worry
     F#m
‘cos under the ocean
       E
At the bottom of the sea
    C#m
You can't hear the storm
        D               D
It's as peaceful as can be
A                       D
It's just the motion
A                       D
It's just the motion
