  			Badd4           Badd4/E   Badd4           Badd4/E
Down by the sea
Badd4           Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
I found your hidden treasure
Badd4           Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Just you and me,
Badd4             Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
We overdosed on pleasure
Badd4               Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Yonnies in the wind,
Badd4                  Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
We're ruggin' up for winter
Badd4                 Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Putting out the bins
Badd4              Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
In cold and windy weather

Badd4            Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Down by the docks
Badd4                 Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Live all the silent sea-ships
Badd4                      Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Crates are stored on blocks
Badd4                  Badd4/E    Badd4           Badd4/E
Where now only the rats    live
C/D
Sail me down the river
                  Em/F#
Till we reach the shore
C/E                C/G
Diving into the cen - ter
D/E             E/C#
Eating out the core

Down on the beach
Saluting Captain Benbow
Always out of reach
It's quiet when the tide's low

Climbing up the cliffs
You can see for miles far
The boat that ran adrift
Is sitting on the sandbar
C/D
Laughing at the waves
                     Em/F#
That storm the river mouth
    C/F#                 C/G
The  ice   is on the move now
D/E                 E/C#
Creeping north and south

Down by the sea
I found your hidden treasure
Just you and me
We over-dosed on pleasure

Listen to your heart
Screamin' at the sky
Can't you feel it tremble?
Don't you wonder why?
