A7         G(6)
There's a car by the door
       D              G
Can I stay or shall I go
             A7        G
It'll surely be, my resort
         D             G
Leave me be, leave me love
        A
I will go

[Chorus 1]
       Gmaj7            D
And I know where I will be tonight
Am                    Gmaj7
Pickin' shells on the riverside

[Verse 2]
          A7           G
Keep the land, I once knew
       D               G
In my own hands, in my own hands
           A7          G
Share with us, last resort
          D                 G
Keep the dream alive, and trust
         A
On your own

[Chorus 2]
       Gmaj7            D
And I know where I will be tonight
Am                    Gmaj7
Pickin' shells on the riverside
          Em                  G           Em
Unto the other side, unto the other side

[Instrumental]
A7  G(6)  A7  G  A7  G(6)

[Verse 3]
       A7           G(6)
Come again, not so close
          D
I didn't hear you right
       G
You're so uptight
             A7                G
Through the hallway, onto the doorway
          D
Keep the dream alive
      G              A
And trust, in yourself

[Chorus 3]
       Gmaj7            D
And I know where I will be tonight
Am                    Gmaj7
Pickin' shells on the riverside
   Gmaj7            D
I know where I will be tonight
Am                    Gmaj7
Pickin' shells on the riverside
   Gmaj7            D
I know where I will be tonight
Am
Shouldn't keep her waiting
           Gmaj7
Keep your head held high
