[Verse 1]
IBb can't get the sand out of my shAboes
TAbhis being in Florida's dGmone a number on my bBblues
JBbust the way the women walk round Abhere
IAbts plain to see the way the sand Gmand the sea have done a numbBber on me
AAbnd the sky is threatening E#black and gray and the sun is aBb festering red
AAbnd her head is claiming heE#r stats ; she ain't yet risen fBbrom bed
SAbo breakfast again delayed,E# postponed, I won't be fed Bb
[Verse 2]
TBbhe surf has swallowed him up, heAb's a memory now
AAbnd the water's warmer thGman it has been in weBbeks
GBbrandma lives just down the road, Abshe's making supper for me tonight
SAbhe's been nice to me sinGmce '73 when her sun Bblost his lights
AAbnd now his ghost is a risiE#ng host above the briny blur Bb
IAb would that soon some maidE# would swoon and his soul wouldBb capture her
HAbe's still a fine kid, whatE# with all that he did, he's a fBban of mine
[Verse 3]
IBb wasn't planning to spend so lonAbg in town
BAbut the break in the weatGmher has got the partBbner down
SBbhe won't get out, she's shotgun,Ab seems she's sewn to the seat
IAbt's a dirty old trick thGmat I've yet to lick Bband she's yet to beat
YAbou can see it in her eyes,E# she was born unwise, she was bBborn for me
IAbf she mourns too long I'llE# know something's wrong and I'lBbl leave her be
YAbou can tell by his shoes hE#e was born to lose, he was bornBb for me
