Alela Diane - The Ocean chords
Start Jamming...
She was always walking, singing to her footsteps, dirt ditch paths and pine cones, digging [F#m] up glass bottles.
Rusty springs from feather beds, old hubcaps on the picket fence.
[Bm] She planted [F#m] beds of flowers,
[Bm] stayed [F#m] outside for hours.
[D] In spirit, [A] she's drifted to the [Bm]
ocean.
[D] All those [A] years of waiting for [Bm] the water, [D] she's watching [A] all the shadows [Bm] call in the wind.
She's waiting for the sun to set by the sea, but the [D] sun set [A] by the sea is in [Bm] her
[D]
[A] [Bm]
mind.
[F#m] And she was always hoping to someday leave the mountain, [Bm] domestic chores [F#m] and children,
[Bm] the darkness [F#m] of the winter.
Painting all these mermaids, wandering to the seashore.
[Bm] She wanted [F#m] him to follow, [Bm] but his heart is [F#m] with the hills.
[D] In spirit, [A] she's drifted to [Bm] the ocean.
All [D]
those [A] years of waiting [Bm] for the water, [D] she's watched [A] long shadows [Bm] call in the wind.
But [D] the sun [A] set by the sea is in [Bm] her mind.
[D] The sun [A] set by the sea is in [Bm] her mind.
[F#m] These days you'll find her walking, singing to the deep sea, [Bm] but she will [F#m] always love
him, [Bm] lost up [F#m] in the mountain.
The sun set on the ocean, gathering shells and beach glass [Bm] and dancing with [F#m] the rolling waves.
[Bm] It gives her [F#m] peace of mind, [Bm] but she will [F#m] always love him, [Bm] lost up in [F#m] the mountain.
Oh, she [D] will always love him, lost up in the mountain.
