Here [D] comes [F] the ocean and the [G] waves down by [F] the sea
[D] Here comes [F] the ocean and the [G] waves crashing [F] in
[D] Earth is a [C] hollow here caught up [Bb] a figure here
It nearly [G]
drives me crazy

In the [C]
Himalayas they have [Bb] small rubber dogs
Recording [G]
all our actions [D] and we'll come [G]

[D]
down by [G] the shore
