[Intro 1]
[C][G][D][Am][C][G][D][C]
[G][D][G][D][C]

[Verse 1]
Is [G]your
jewelry [D]still lost [C]in the sand
Out on the [G]coast,
[D]or rushed into the[C] brine?
You left your ring[G]s o[D]n the [C]shoreline
So you wouldn't lose [G]'em
swim[D]ming in the shal[C]lows

[Verse 2]
[D]A plastic s[G]hovel,
soft sweaty [C]children far [Em]from [D]home
On vaca[G]tion, not [C]unlike your very own

[Verse 3]
And Captain Howdy [G]lit[D]
upon [C]my shoulder
And he left me with [G]sulfur and
[D]rooms full of head[C]aches
I fell in with [G]snakes in the [D]poisoned
ranks of stranger[C]s
Please send me [G]more yellow
[D]birds for the dim interi[C]or[D]

[Verse 4]
Will my [G]pony re[C]cognize
my voice in [D]hell?
Will he [G]still be blind,
or [C]do they go by [D]smell?
Will you [G]promise me not to
[C]rest me [G]out at sea[C][D]
But on a [G]fiery river [C]boat that's rickety?

[Interlude 1]
[C][Em]
[Bm][Am][G][D][Am][Em][D][C][G][Am][Eb]
[D]

[Verse 5]
I'll never [G]find my pony [C]along the
roiling [Em]swells[G][D]
A muddy [G]river or a [C]lake
would do me [D]well
With [G]hints of amber sundowns and
[C]muted thunderstorms
[G]A s[C]unken bar[Cm]ge's[C] horns,
[Am]with the cold and rusty bells

[Outro 1]
[Am][C][Eb]
