Вступление
[Verse 1]
BmADG
A cloud of haze hangs low on the water
DABmA
Adults indulge every whim
BmADG
The reckless children splash in the surf
DAD
But they don't know how to swim
[Instrumental]
DGDGDGDABm
[Verse 2]
BmADG
A line of oil rigs dot the horizon
DABmA
I'm caught adrift once again
BmADG
I let the tide carry me where it wants to
DAD
Back where this all began
[Chorus 1]
GABmA
A feel a wave of the ocean sickness
GABmAG
It pulls me down to the floor
GABmA
It isn't far but I can't swim the distance
GADGD
To Catalina shore
[Verse 3]
BmADG
A line of mobiles sit on the freeway
DABmA
They stop and start and stop
BmADG
The city lights shine at night but you can't see them
DAD
Through the car exhaust
[Chorus 2]
BmABmA
And though there's sun through the ocean sickness
GABmAG
My head is caught in the fog
GABmA
It's been a while since I could tell the difference
GAD
Between the clouds and smog
[Bridge]
GDA
And on TV, you know it's paradise on earth
GDA
But just like me, it is a thing so flawed from birth
[Instrumental]
BmADGDABmABmADGDAD
[Verse 4]
BmADG
The sun is shining all through November
DABmA
The water's cold; let it freeze
BmADG
A seal swam by my head and I swear that it said
DAD
"Good luck" to me
[Chorus 3]
BmABmA
I turn my back on the ocean sickness
GABmAG
The sandy hair and the tans
GABmA
But through the cold I'll await the Pacific
GAD
To call me home again
[Chorus 4]
BmABmA
And though there's pain through the ocean sickness
GABmAG
I'm drawn away from the land
GABmA
And through the cold I'll await the Pacific
GADGD
To call my name again
