[F#m] [C#m]
[D] [E] [D] [A]
We used to go [D] down to the beach at [A] night, Fireflies dancing in the promenade light.
[Bm] All those rock and roll bands [E] used to really swing.
[A] And I'd do the [D] foxtrot with Sweet Christine,
[C#m] Speaking to me [Bm] with her gentle hands.
[C#m] Fly on [Bm] down to Wonderland.
[A]
Deep water, [E] I'm puffin' and slow.
[D] If I'm in over my head, [E] I'll be the last to know.
[D] [A]
Deep water, [D] [A]
deep water.

[G#m] [Bm]
[F#m] [E] [D]
[E] [D] [A] They closed down the [D] doors to the Trocadero, [A] And I came back [D] lookin' just like a ghost.
[Bm] Posters are scattered [E] all over the stairs.
[A] Nobody reads, [D] so nobody cares.
[C#m] The kids are retired [Bm] when they reach 21.
[C#m] But it really just ain't [Bm] my pure fun.
[A] Deep water, [E] I'm puffin' and slow.
[D] If I'm in over my head, [E] I'll be the last to know.

Sitting out on [D] the Palm Beach [A] road, I'm [B] so drunk and the car won't go.
[D]
My crazy eyes keep lookin' out to [A] sea.
Sunday drive is a cruisin' round.
Wish they'd all go back to town.
[D]
What do they [E] expect to find?
[A]
Sure as hell ain't [D] peace of mind.
[A]
Deep water, [E] I'm puffin' and slow.
[D] If I'm in over my head, [E] I'll be the last to know.
[D]
