[Intro 1]
[G][Em][Eb][G]
[Em][Eb][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Nobody cares
About [D]ocean affairs
[Em]He's by himself[Eb]
'cause nobody loves [G]him
Cleaning his sand
Filled [D]boots with his [Em]hand
Looking [Eb]for something but nothing
sees [G]him

[Interlude 1]
[G][Em][Eb][G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Happy was he
In [D]spite of [G]his knee
[Em]That wasn't ther[Eb]e because
of his day [G]job
There was a man
Who took to [Em]the band
Paying at[Eb]tention tried to adhere [G]him

[Verse 3]
And he ran And he shot
[Em]
But his [Eb]rivals were sharp
[G]And the kids[F]
In the sand
[Em]Struggled find[Eb]ing a plan[G]
[Em][Eb][G]

[Verse 4]
[G]Seemingly fine
He slipped on his [Em]wine
Terra [Eb]was healthy but not on a mis[G]sion

[Verse 5]
[G]There was a sea
A [D]mythic[G]al tease
[Em]Our cannons were shot
[Eb]"Til we couldn't afford [G]them[F]

[Verse 6]
Others would [G]have died [F]alone
Angels all [G]worked free[F]
Timeless fairs [G]and sing-along[F]s

[Verse 7]
Speaking naturally
[G]And he ran
[F]And he shot
[Em]But his riva[Ebaug]ls were sh[Eb]arp
[G]And the kids[F]
In the sand
[Em]Struggled deep[Gaug] hand in hand
[G]All the way
[F]From the bay
[Em]I could he[Eb]ar them say
[G]All the time
[F]We were dead
[Em]And I'm Cap'[Eb] Splendid[Cm]

[G]And he ran
[F]And he shot
[Em]But his riva[Eb]ls were sharp
[G]And the kids[F]
In the sand
[Em]Struggled deep[Eb] hand in hand
[G]All the way
[F]From the bay
[Em]I could hear[Eb] them say
[G]I don't care
[F]If we're dead
