Me By The Sea

-----------------------------

[The A* measures in the verses are actually A - Asus9 - A,

alternating between 0 and 2 on the B string. Similarly, E* is

E - Esus4 - E, switching between 1 and 2 on the G string.]

[Hammer on from 0 to 2 on the A string in the E chords after

the line, "I can't on my own."]

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

I'm glad no one's here to mess it up for me

A* Dsus9 F#m7(4) E

I saw an orange starfish on the side of a rock

A* Dsus9 Esus4 E*

I poked on his back and tried to pull him off

A crab scared me away, he ran close to my toes

And man, I wish I had a hand to hold

The moon is nowhere, almost time for the sun

A* Dsus9 Esus4 E*

The voice of the waves sounds anciently young

A* Dsus9 F#m7(4) E

I'm a prisoner of freedom, ten toes in the sand

And man, I wish I had a hand to hold

I'm in the habit of being alone

I try hard to break it, I can't on my own

A* Dsus9 A* Asus9

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

A* Dsus9 Esus4 E*

I'm glad no one's here to mess it up for me

A* Dsus9 F#m7(4) E

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

But man, I wish I had a hand to hold
