Coastal Confessions

(Haven't tabbed this out yet but here are the chords) E Well I'm a tidal pool explorer I believe that down on the beach Where the sea gulls preach Is where the Chinese buried the truth. A So I dig in the sand With my misguided hands E And if I dig deep enough Hell I just might dig it up B Talkin about treasure A Talkin about pleasure E Talkin about love E Now I'm a reader of the night sky And a singer of inordinate tunes That's how I float across time Livin way past my prime Like a long lost baby's balloon. A So I hang on to the string Work that whole gravity thing E But when my space ship goes pop Back to the earth I will drop B Into the sea A Or the limbs of a tree E Or the wings of my love Chorus B A E And I don't know what I'm supposed to do B A E Maybe invent me a story or two A C#m B I've got coastal confessions to make E E How bout you, how bout you? They say that time is like a river And stories are the key to the past But now I'm stuck in between Here at my typing machine Trying to come up with some words that will last. It's so easy to see that we live history And if I just find the beat I know Ill land on my feet I always do Hadn't got a clue Cause it comes from above. Chorus And I don't know what I'm supposed to do Maybe invent me a story or two I've got coastal confessions to make How bout you, how bout you? Let's go to church, Sonny... (musical bridge) B C#m A E So bless me father, yes I have sinned B C#m A E Given the chance I'll probably do it again B C#m I don't need absolution A B Just a simple solution will do So let's talk about the future Or the consequences of my past I've got scars, I've got lines I'm not hard to define Just an altar boy covering his ass. I know I can't run and hide But just hang on for the ride There will be laughter and tears As we progress through the years But still it's fun Hey I'm not done Gonna dance till I fall Chorus And I don't know what I'm supposed to do Maybe have me a boat drink or two It's just the coastal confessions I hear Tell the truth, tell the truth I've got some coastal confessions to make How bout you
