Alice At The Beach Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Dm]65 in Massachusetts,
[Am]Alice at the beach
[Dm]Young kid drowning, she jumps in
and [Am]pulls him from harm's reach
She goes [Dm]right to the middle of it,
she goes right to the middle of it
And here is the [Am]strangest thing,
are you listening?
[Dm]This is the riddle of it,
this is the riddle of it
Ten years later that boy from the sea
saves a [Am]man who can't [Dm]swim
It's Alice's husband
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
[Am]There'll be something that
you can't explain
[Dm]When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
[Am]There'll be something you
can't give a name
January, [E]New [Dm]York morning
Hudson clear [Am]below
[Dm]Sullen burger, dams the silence
[Am]His heart's an ancient door
He goes [Dm]right to the middle of it
He goes right to the middle of it
And here is the [Am]strangest thing
Are you listening?
[Dm]This is the riddle of it
This is the riddle of it
He lands that bird like a fly on a pond
Walks the length of it twice
Till he knows that he's done
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
[Am]There'll be something that
you can't explain
[Dm]When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
[Am]There'll be something you
can't give a name
So you just [F]hold on
You just [E]hold on
You don't [Am]know what good is coming
You don't know [D]what good can do
Yeah, you [Dm]just [F]hold on
You just [E]hold on
See [Am]all that good that's coming
It's com[D]ing just for you
Yeah, you [Dm]just [F]hold on
You just [E]hold [Dm]on[Am][Dm][Am]
[Dm]When you think you've
got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
[Am]There'll be something that
you can't explain
[Dm]When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
[Am]There'll be something you
can't give a [Dm]name
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep hold[Am]in'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep hold[Dm]in'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep hold[Am]in'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep hold[Dm]in'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep hold[Am]in'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holding on, keep on
[Dm]Keep on holding on, keep on
