[G#] So I guess you won't know it [C#m] by now, because we've said it three times.
Alright.
[C] [F#] Okay, let's do it.
[C] [D] If you look over there, [F#m]
that's where I [Bm] was born
And [A] if you [D] close your eyes and visualize
[F#m] You'll see me kick a football down [G] the road
[A] I had [D] a happy childhood, [F#m] I always loved to [Bm] dance
[F] And [D] all the boys would make a fool out [F#m] of me
But the girls would take [G] a chance
[A] And it all feels [Bm] like yesterday
[D] It's [A] amazing how [G] the [D] time [E] just drifts [D] away
[E]
[F#m] I love [A] [Em] Seattle
If [G] [D]
[B] [E] [Em]
[G] [D]
you look over there, [F#m] that's where my [Bm] old ma was
[A] [D] Every day at [F#m] 5am she'd get up so that she could [G] take care of us
[A] There [D] was never a day going by [F#m] where we could not rely on our [Bm] old ma
I [C#m] [D] can't imagine life [F#m] without her
I can't [G] imagine now
[A] She made [Bm] everything perfect
[D] [A] She was just [G] the [D] best [C#m] mom in the [D] world
[A] Don't you love [Em] Seattle?
[G] [D]
[B] [F#m] [Em]
[G] [D]
[A] [Em]
[G] [D]
[E] [Em]
[G] [D] If you look over there, [F#m] that's where [Bm] I will die
[A] [D] Take this old chair of [F#m] mine and drive [G] into the sea
[A] And [D] all the fishes, they will laugh at me
[F#m] And seagulls, they will snap at [Bm] me
But I, I, [D] I will find my [F#m] peace [A] again
[G] Oh, I love [D] the sea, yeah
[F#m] [Em]
[G] [D]
[B] [A] [Em]
[G] [D]
[A] [F#m] [Em]
[G] Oh, I love the [D] sea
[E] [Em]
[G] [D]
