E            B                       C#m
The weak spot on a beachball is the valve
                       A
If you don't count the smell
                     B
Or the fact that the harder you hit it
   E           B         C#m
The slower it seems to go
                                    A
Till the wind blows and takes it away
                     B
To the side of the bay

E                B
Where the guard at the gate
C#m                          A   B
Has a gun and a phone and a radio

[Verse]
E              B         C#m
You say the world isn't fair
                    A                  
You say you don't care
                 B
You say it was cheap and you tell me
E          B                 C#m     A
The damn thing never did hold air, hold air

As we watch it float toward
   B
The boats over there

[Refrain]
E                B
Where the guard at the gate
C#m                          A   B
Has a gun and a phone and a radio

[Chorus]
E            B                       C#m
The weak spot on a beachball is the valve
                       A
If you don't count the smell
                     B
Or the fact that the harder you hit it
   E           B         C#m
The slower it seems to go
                                    A
Till the wind blows and takes it away
                     B
To the side of the bay

E                B
Where the guard at the gate
C#m                          A  B
Has a gun and a phone and a radio
