On the ocean ships are So am I

waiting high

Cmaj7 G

City papers blow around me

Cmaj7 G

As the morning hits the sky

Cmaj7 G Em A

On the ocean ships are waiting high

D

So am I

Cmaj7 G

City sweeper goes around me

Cmaj7 G

He don't need no reason why

Cmaj7 G Em A

If I don't seem in a hurry now

D

I've arrived

CHORUS:

C D Bm Em

Come on baby, won't you save me

C D G Am7 G/B

Turn this water into wine

C D Bm Em

Love, emotion, like an ocean

C D Cmaj7

How can I hold back the tide

Cmaj7 G

Baby meet me on the corner

Cmaj7 G

When you hear that whistle blow

Cmaj7 G Em

If I don't seem like I oughta

A D

The one you used to know

CHORUS

SOLO AS VERSE

Cmaj7 G

I'm on high ground, put this weight down

Cmaj7 G

Of one thing you can be sure

Cmaj7 G Em

On the ocean ships are sailing

A D

But I don't need them anymore

CHORUS x2

SOLO AS VERSE (end as C, D, G)
