[G] [D] I am stuck in [Am] LA through the [C] week and can't get [G] away and you're [D] alone on the [E] pier in West
[C] Palm Beach on your [G] holiday.
[D] Stormy nights
[Am] reawake the stomach [E] ache [C] that I've [G] acquired from [D] feeling down.
Things [E] look grim and I'm [C] so sick of being fired.
[D] The lights [C] go dark and it's [Em] depressing [D] but what can [C] I do?
The midnight [D] streets feel [C] dead when I am [Em] so [D] used to driving [G] with you.
Brighter [D] lights fill the [G] night and [C] blue earth skies reflect in [G] your eyes.
As I [D] inspect and
[Em] analyze all of [C] these dreams I don't [G] recognize.
If you're still up [D] when the [G] ship's [C] in the port, prepare to [G] set sail.
Comb [D] the beach and put [Em] those blue flowers [C] up in your honeytown inside [D] my head.
[Em] Your [C] voice is still [Em] resounding [D] but what can [Em] I [Am] do?
The empty [D] rooms [Em] feel cold when I am so [D] used to being [G] with you.
Count the stars, [D] watch the [C] waves, absorb the summer sun and think [G] of me when you [D] explore.
Hidden [Em] coves and tiny [C] island chains throughout [G] the sea.
Can you [D] still hear [Em] my voice when I'm [C] outside?
From over [G] the phone, for what [D] it's worth?
Darling [Em] dear, I wish you [C] were here because I feel alone.
When you [D] were home [Em] we'd sing but since you've left I don't [D] hear [C] anything.
Though [D] I feel [Em] so sad, I can't believe [D] things are really [C] that bad.
Old [D] captains in brand [Em] new cruise [C] ships sailing over [D] the briny [G]
[C] sea.
When I crash [D] my beloved [Em] desk [C] job and [G] swim through the [D] debris.
[C] I'll cut [D] loose and leave [Em] this [C] mess bound for [D] the Atlantic [G]
[C] blue.
I'll stroll [D] down your [Em] treeline [C] driveway and [G] sail the ocean.
