The name of it is "Water's Edge," after the beach resort in Westbrook, CT. This song is kinda... eh, it is what is.
D
You rent me an inner tube
E
you buy me calamari
G
you take me to see a cover band
D
give me money for the arcade.
D
You tell me my room
E
at the resort that we're staying
G
will have movies playing
D
that have only just played
C
in the theatres.
A7
well wilikers, how futuristic
G
And y'know I think I wanna be
A7
At home with my dvds
G
And I know I'm not at Water's edge
A7
everyday
G
at home I have musical instruments, n' things that aren't
E7
in danger of getting disgusting, and dusted, and encrusted with mounds of mud and sand
G
D
You and I wait until low
E
tide to see the sandbar
G
appearing out of nowhere
D
like dog shit under a shoe
D
We walk on the sandbar to Jackson's island
E
and I'm pleasantly surprised and
G
the seashells and tourists that ask how my tour was, the staffers who're silent and smile and make sure
G7
I'm in good health, high spirits, deliri-ous-, ly full of calamari and laughing
A7
and enjoying my stay
D
I decide it's not that bad here.
