Bb             Eb
Maybe it's you, maybe it's me
            Bb                             Eb
Maybe it's just the constant rhythm of the sea
            Bb                     Dm
Maybe it's just that I have never been the kind
         Gm                Cm  F
Who can pass a lucky penny by

            Bb              Eb
Maybe it's wise, maybe it's not
            Bb                           Eb
Maybe it's you who brought the caring I forgot
          Dm                     Gm
Isn't it nice to talk about the special way
         Cm                  F
That you smile whenever I'm around?

[Chorus]
F                             Eb
Rising on the shore the ocean came
F                        Eb
Walks along the waves of velveteen
    Dm               G
His only thought was love for me

[Verse 2]
             Bb              Eb
Couldn't we stay or must we go?
             Bb                                    Eb
Couldn't we stay and watch the splashing rocks we throw
        Dm                          Gm
Only a fool would want to leave the paradise
        Cm                   Eb
That I find whenever you're around
        G
Only a fool

[Instrumental]
Bb Eb Bb Eb

         Dm                      Gm
Isn't it nice to talk about the special way
         Cm
That you smile whenever I'm around?

[Chorus]
F                       Eb
Rising on the shore the ocean came
F                        Eb
Walks along the waves of velveteen
    Dm                G          F G           F
His only thought was love for me,  love for me

Couldn't we stay and watch the splashing rocks we throw

Only a fool would want to leave the paradise
