[Verse 1]
[Am]If I could have chosen where God would hide his he[C]aven
I'd wish for it to be the salt
and swell of the ocean
[Bdim]Carried by the currents [Ddim]to all[Bdim]
continents' shores
[Am]Reaching into the depths where
the sun's light is never shown
Mixed with algae and coral,
breathed in by sharks and dolphins
[C]Sailed by tanker ships, private yachts,
swam in by tourists
[Bdim]Working its way up through inlets,
lakes, and rivers
[Am]Swamps, and estuaries,

[Verse 2]
Purified by the county, [Dm]pumped
through pipes and out faucets
[Am]Filled into a glass [C]to meet the thirst of
our chil[Am]dren[G]

[Verse 3]
[Am]
And if I could have chosen,
I would have been born a woman
[C]My mother once told me she would

[C]Our family would spend hot summer
days at the beach together
[Bdim]The sun would kiss our skin as we
played in the sand and water
[Am]And we would know we loved each
other without having to say it
[Dm]At

[Verse 4]
night, we would sleep with the
windows of our house left open
Letting [Am]the cool ocean air [C]soothe the sunburned shoulders of our

[Verse 5]
[Am]ocean in my [Dm]soul[Am]
where the waters [Dm]do not cu[Am]rve[Dm]
There is an [Am]ocean in my soul where
the waters do not curve
[Dm]There [Am]is an ocean in my soul where
the waters do not curve
There is an ocean in my soul [G]where the waters [Dm]do not c[Am]urve!
