G D I need a house on a beach Em C Facing out to the deep blue sea G D I need to put up my feet Em C One day to do nothing else but sleep D G And it all starts with a house on a beach C D G I can see it in my mind C D G Name is painted on an old driftwood sign C D G Hanging above the screen door in the back Am D That opens up to the porch and the best view I've ever had G D I need a house on a beach Em C And a beautiful woman next to me G D A couple of kids in the sand Em C We'll make some castles then make 'em again Em C Feel the tide cover up our feet D G And it all starts with a house on a beach C D G I can see it in my mind C D G Name is painted on an old driftwood sign C D G Hanging above the screen door in the back Am D That opens up to the porch and the best view you've ever had Em D Am And it feels just like my dream C D G That always starts with a house on a beach G D I need a house on a beach Em C Somewhere the arms of this city are never gonna reach G D Out past the concrete and the street lights Em C Me and the salt on the breeze under the night skies Em C Where I can slow down and listen to my dreams Em C It's the same one I've had every night for weeks Em C Am It ends with a fever and slips back out of reach C D G But always starts with a house on a beach G D I need a house on a beach Em C D G Facing out to the deep blue sea
