D G
And he said I came here to watch the sun
D G
disappear into the ocean
Bm A
cos it's been years since I smelled
G Gsus4 G
the salty sea
D G
And he turned his bottle up and down
D G
And I saw him lost and I saw him found
Bm A
and he said I don't know what I've been looking for.
G Gsys4 G
Maybe me.
VERSE 2
//Pick D and G for the verse//
Well I told him I too had been travelling around
Living out of my van from town to town
Playing for tips and whatever records I could move
I said I don't reckon I'll be making it big
It's hard to get rich off a tour of coffee house gigs
And he said yeah, but ain't it a blessing to do what you want to do
CHORUS
D G
And I told him yeah I pulled off here to watch the sun
D G
disappear into the ocean
Bm A
cos it's been years since I smelled
G Gsus4 G
the salty sea.
D G
And he turned his bottle up and down
D G
And he saw me lost and he saw me found
Bm A
And he said I don't know what I've been looking for
G Gsus4 G
Maybe me.
VERSE 3
//Pick D and G for the verse//
I said it's getting kinda late
Better be heading down to the interstate
Can I give you a lift to San Francisco Bay?
He said nope, I think I'm just going to sit here and rest
Maybe wait on the Tokyo-Montana express
I might just lay here and dream my life away
CHORUS
D G
I'm going to sit right here, I'm going to wath the sun
D G
Disappear into the ocean
Bm A
Cos it's been years
G
Yeah it's been years
D G
I'm going to turn my bottle up and down
D G
you can see me lost and you can see me found.
OUTRO
//Pick D and G//
I met him on th cliffs at Twin Rocks Oregan
He was sitting on his bedroll looking just like Richard Braudigan
Just like him.
