A Dip in the Ocean Fountains of Wayne
Key:F
Capo: 1
| E | A | E | A |
[E]It's you and me on a [A]beach in 199[E]8
[E]Leaning into the [A]breeze - from the [C#m]willows
And [A]rhythm and [E]grace are re[G#m]born in this [A]place
I'm as[E]sured the procedure is [B]painless
[E]The taxicab with no [A]brakes around the mountain [E]pass
[E]Keep your head in your [A]hands - if any[C#m]body [A]asks
What you [E]mean when you were [G#m]picking a [A]fight
You were [E]only complimenting the [B]waitress
Give us a [G#m]room with a mountain [A]view
A tiny ca[E]bana by the water - yeah, by the water
And [A]I got a rental for an [G#m]hour or [C#m]two
For a [A]ride up the coast and a [B]dip in the ocean
| E | A | E | A |
[E]The waterfront is a[A]light with citronella [E]flame
[E]Tourists flashing the [A]night - from the [C#m]grottoes
And [A]gathering [E]now on the [G#m]heel-worn [A]planks
For a [E]drunken promenade or a [B]mambo
[E]And lovers paddle a [A]boat on the molten [E]bay
[E]Veering into the [A]reeds - on a [C#m]ripple
And [A]playing it [E]cool in a [G#m]bar by the [A]pool
With a [E]Caribbean Kiss Ama[B]retto
Give us a [G#m]room with a mountain [A]view
A tiny ca[E]bana by the water - yeah, by the water
And [A]I got a rental for an [G#m]hour or [C#m]two
For a [A]ride up the coast and a [B]dip in the ocean
| E | A | E | A |
[G#m]Get a load of the [A]light in the trees
And the [E]sweet de[B]cay on the [E]maritime [B]breeze
[C#m]The sun's hitching [B]on a [A]weather balloon
And the [B]heat off the tarmac
F#m B |E |
Burning a hole in a gold afternoon
| A | E | A C#m | A E | G#m A | E | B |
Give us a [G#m]room with a mountain [A]view
A tiny ca[E]bana by the water - yeah, by the water
And [A]I got a rental for an [G#m]hour or [C#m]two
And a [A]bottle in a cooler, [E]maps and a [C#m]big [B]brown [A]towel
It's a [A]beater but to[G#m]day will [C#m]do
A B |E |
For a ride up the coast and a dip in the ocean
|A |E |A |E |
. . . In the ocean . . . In the ocean
|A |C#m |A |E |
. . . In the ocean . . . In the ocean
|A |C#m |A |E |
. . . In the ocean . . . In the ocean
|A |C#m |A |E |
. . . In the ocean . . . In the ocean
|A |C#m |A |E |
. . . In the ocean . . . In the ocean
(repeat pattern and fade)
Notes:
The song is in F, but I play it in E with a capo on the 1st fret.
On some of the rapid chord movements I play C#5, B5 and A2 instead of C#m, B and A.
C5 = 046600
B5 = 024400
A2 = 002200
