Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers - Saltwater joys

Just to^C wake up in the m^Gorning to the^Am quiet of the ^Fcove And he^Car aunt Bessie tal^Gking to herse^Clf. And to he^Car poor uncle Jo^Ghn mumbling wi^Amshes too old n^Fow It ma^Cde me feel li^Gke everything was fi^Cne. I was bo^Grn down by the w^Amater, it's he^Fre I'm gonna st^Cay I've sear^Gched for all the rea^Amsons why ^FI should go aw^Cay. Course I haven't got the th^Girst for all those^Am modern day to^Fys So I'll just t^Cake my chances with those salt^Gwater jo^Cys.

Foll^Cowing the little brook,^G as it tri^Amckles to the sh^Fore In the aut^Cumn winds the tr^Gees are flaming r^Ced. Kicki^Cng leaves that fa^Gll around me, wat^Amching sunset paint the hi^Flls It's a^Cll I'll never ne^Ged to feel at ho^Cme. This isl^Gand that we cl^Aming to has been ha^Fnded down with pr^Cide But fo^Glks that fought to l^Amive here, taking hard^Fships all in st^Cride. So I'll comp^Gliment her beauty, h^Amold on to my good^F-byes And I'll stay,^C take my chances with those^G saltwater jo^Cys.

How can ^CI leave those morn^Gings, with the su^Amnrise on the co^Fve And the gu^Clls like fly's surro^Gunding Clayton's wh^Carf. Platters is^Cland wrapped in rai^Gnbow, in the ev^Amening after f^Fog The oc^Cean smells are per^Gfume to my so^Cul. Some g^Go to where t^Amhe buildings re^Fach to meet the cl^Couds

Where wa^Grm and gentile pe^Amople turn to swa^Frm and faceless cro^Cwds. So I'll do wi^Gthout their riches^Am, Glamour and the no^Cise And I'll stay^C, take my chances with those^G saltwater jo^Cys.
