[Bm] [D]
[A] I watch my [E] shadow stretch.
[F#m]
[G] The sun pours my shadow upon [D] that day.
[A] The water's licking round my [E] ankles now.
[Em]
[F#] [G] I'm in the sunshine way, [D] way down.
I see [A] the sharks are in the water like a [E] slick song.
[F#] Well, [G] there's one there bigger than a [D] submarine.
[A] As he circles I look [G] her in his [E] eye.
[F#m]
I see [G] John in his belly by the [D] campfire light.
[A] Lord, I have a trust up in the [E] wind and [Em] oars.
[F#m] [G] He's spinning in his wings while he [D] sleeps it off.
I [A] hear the devil's surprise from his [Em] dreams on.
He's crying.
[F#] [G] And he's whipping my ears like a [D] rioting crowd.
[A] Well, the captain wants his anger [G] at the thick [E] day.
[Em] [F#]
He's got [G] my head up in the gutter like a slide [D] out leak.
He's [A] like a dinosaur, steady, [Em] stance, or I sink.
[D] [G] Well, we're gonna be alone from here [D] on.
Hey,
[E] you're all my brothers and you [D] have big pie.
What [E] were you expecting [D] to find?
[G] Now you're after me, what would Captain Ness do?
[B]
[C] I'm a fucking away on a barrel of pipe.
It looks like nothing but the sea and sky.
[B] Lord, remind.

[A] Lord, I'm from Scottsdale, [Em] Florida.
[F#] [G] I've been in huts since the [D] crack time.
I'm [A] spinning while I'm checking [Em] out in the city.
[F#] [G] Lord, it's a no-one-and-nothing I don't want [D] to be.
Just [A] if I try, I don't know till I have it, try [E] to die.
[F#m] The [G] stocks won't kill me, but they don't [D] feel awesome.
Just [A] if I try, I see my [Em] limits not break.
[Bm]
This [G] time it's in my fin until [D] I'm over six.
[A]
It's in my [E] fin.
[G] It's in my [D] fin.
[A] It's in my [Em]
fin.
[F#m] [G] It's in my fin, [D] my fin, my fin.
