To The Ocean

E C#m E C#m


[Verse 1]
 E       C#m
East in June
             E
Trade the brightest greens of Summer
          C#m
For the dreams of navy blue
  E       C#m
East in June
            E
Leave the calm Pacific breeze
          C#m
For an Atlantic rendezvous


[Chorus]
A                             E                      B    A
'Cause I've been driving for days, on down a dusty road
                               E                             B
I can't wait to dive in the waves, can't wait to lighten my load
           C#m                A
And as the sun dips down I know
            C#m           A
No matter where my body goes
      C#m          B                 E
Every road eventually leads me back home


[Verse 2]
E                              C#m
I am gonna see if I can get to Tennessee
               E
And write a song about the sea
             C#m
That we can sing along to
E                              C#m
I am gonna see if I can get to Tennessee
             E
And write a song about the sea
                C#m
To cure my landlocked blues


[Chorus]
   A                           E                    B
'Cause I've been driving for days, on down a dusty road
      B                         B                 A
We're gonna get there, we're gonna get back home
                              E                                B
I can't wait to dive in the waves, can't wait to lighten my load
    B              B               A
We're gonna get back to the coast
            C#m               A
And as the sun dips down I know (we know)
            C#m           A
No matter where my body goes (we go)
       C#m          B       G#         E
Every road eventually leads me back home

To the ocean we know
        C#m         B                  E
Every road eventually leads me back home


[Bridge]
      G#m   C#m     G#m  C#m
To the ocean, to the ocean
                          A
My heart's tied to the coast
 A                     E
If I stay I'll be a ghost
  E                     B
You wouldn't like me anyway
      G#m  C#m      G#m  C#m
To the ocean, to the ocean
                          A
I take my air with some salt
A                                E
I hear the wind and waves a-calling
 E                        B
It's not my fault, it's DNA


[Verse 3]
    E                        C#m
'Cause that's the way its got to go
        E                     C#m
When I drive back through Nashville
 E                         C#m
I'm gonna stop and say, "Hello"
           E
Just long enough to write a song
 C#m                  E       A
That will get me to Seattle


[Chorus]
   A                          E                      B
'Cause I've been driving for days, on down a dusty road
   B                       B                      A
We're gonna get there, we're gonna get back home
                              E                                B
I can't wait to dive in the waves, can't wait to lighten my load
  B                                A
We're gonna get back to the coast
           C#m               A
And as the sun dips down I know (we know)
            C#m            A
No matter where my body goes (we go)
           C#m          B        G#        C#m
And every road eventually leads me back home
C#m
To the ocean we know
           C#m          B                 E
And every road eventually leads me back home
