[Verse 1]
Out [G]of
work I took a job as a
[F]Hand on a boat
In [C]a town [G]called Matlache
On my first day off I was
[F]Sitting drinking beer
[C]At a bar called the dock of the [G]bay

[Verse 2]
When [F]in walked a woman
That [G]every man eyed
But her [F]eyes [C]stayed right on [G]me
[F]The guy next to me he
[G]Whispered real low
There's [C]more to her than you can see
[D]

[Verse 3]
She comes from the [G]back [F]bay
Better [C]stay [G]away
She lives up on the back [F]bay
And then he [C]moved on away
[G][F][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]
Well she came and sat down
And the [F]hours flew by
And [C]the beer flowed just like [G]the tide
The sun went down and
[F]the moon came up
And there [C]was fire in her [G]eyes

[Verse 5]
She [F]took me for a ride in
[G]the white moonlight
In a [F]boat like [C]I've never [G]seen[C][G]
As [F]the bay flew by [G]the sky was alive
I was [C]seeing things that I've
never seen
[D]

[Verse 6]
She said you're going to
the [G]back [F]bay
You're gonna [C]see my [G]ways
Cause there's magic on the back [F]bay
You might [C]even want to stay
[G]

[Interlude 1]

[F][C][G]

[Verse 7]
Well I [G]woke in the morning to
Her [F]house boat rocking
[C]Eye to eye with an old brown [G]hound
There was fresh mullet frying
And strange birds crying
[C]And no one else for miles aro[G]und

[Verse 8]
[F]I saw her standing there with
[G]The breeze in her hair
I knew [F]I never [C]wanted [G]to leave
I saw all [F]my things around I
Knew she'd [G]been back into town
And [C]already mad the move [D]for me

[Verse 9]
[D]She said you're moving to
the [G]back [F]bay
You're gonna [C]see my ways
[G]You're gonna love it on the back bay[F]
And you're al[C]ways [G]gonna[C][G][F]
[C]sta[G]y
