CaddG
 Gonna put the the world away for a minute 
F
 Pretend I don't live in it 
C               G              C
 Sunshine gonna wash my blues away 
CaddG
 Had sweet love but I lost it 
F
 She got too close so I fought her 
         Am          G               F         G      C
 Now I'm lost in the world trying to find me a better way 

              CaddG
 Wishing I was knee deep in the water somewhere 
         F
 Got the blue sky breeze and it don't seem fair 
      C                         G                   C      *:
 Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair 
CaddG
 Sunrise there's a fire in the sky 
       F
 Never been so happy, never felt so high 
       Am                 G           F           G   C
 And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

 This champagne shore washing over me 
        G                               C         CaddBb
 It's a sweet, sweet life living by the salty sea 
 F                       C
 One day you could be as lost as me 
                 D7

~ADDIONAL LEAD RIFF~
This is the lead guitar lick that is played occasionally throughout the song 
(marked by *:). It just consists of keeping the forefinger on the 11th fret of 
the B and high E string while hammering on with either the middle or ring finger 
and the pinky. Since it requires 2 guitars, I did not include it in my main work 
(although the ending little lick in the Intro Riff is also a second guitar, but I 
decided to put that in as it's manageable to play with everything else), but if 
anyone is interested, here's the tabs! :)
