I can't seem to find anything to take my mind off you
Am                                                      G          (G F#)
There's too much open space, there's too much sand in my shoes
F                                                           G

It's just these beachcomber blues

Am                                                   G
I watch the weather man, and I follow every pressure change
Am                                                      G        (G F#)
'Cause when a change comes, my beach is filled with our debris
F                                                             G
I walk this ocean shore, don't know what I'm looking for, it's true

It's just these beachcomber blues

I'll let the rising tide rinse off this dead-end hotel haze
F                                                G
I'll never settle down, I guess I'm always passing through
