Intro: C 

C 
i want to bury you up to your neck in the sand 
                               G 
exposing only your head and one hand 
                                    C 
we'll find a friend who will bury me too 


C                                                    F 
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands just me and you 
C                                  G             C 
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands, me and you 

C 
the crabs will arrive and they'll pick at your face 
                                               G 
but I'll whistle so they'll pick at mine in your place 
                                                    C 
then the gulls will arrive, eat the crabs for their food 


C                                                    F 
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands just me and you 
C                                  G             C 
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands, me and you 


       G              F           G               F 
if the tide takes me away, if the tide takes you away 
        G             F               C 
if the tide takes us away, we'll meet here 
            G 
in the sand 
      C                      G  
never fear, just look to the sand 


C 
if the waves come in, well we'll both surely drown 
                                           G 
but to stay here with you makes me hold my ground 
C 
lets just make sure we're buried far enough up the beach 

C                                          F 
to stand in the sand holding hands you and me 
            C                        G             C 
yeah we'll stand in the sand holding hands you and me 

       G              F           G               F 
if the tide takes me away, if the tide takes you away 
        G             F               C 
if the tide takes us away, we'll meet here 
            G 
in the sand 
      C                      G  
never fear, just look to the sand 
       C                     G

       F  G     C
