Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro riff

Gonna put the the world away for a minute

Pretend I don't live in it

Sunshine gonna wash my blues away

Had sweet love but I lost it

She got too close so I fought her

Now I'm lost in the world trying to find me a better way

Wishing I was knee deep in the water somewhere

Got the blue sky breeze and it don't seem fair

[*]

Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair

Sunrise there's a fire in the sky

Never been so happy, never felt so high

And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

Riff [1st half]

Wrote a note said be back in a minute

Wishing my condition ain't ever gonna go away

Cause now I'm knee deep in the water somewhere

Got the blue sky breeze blowing wind through my hair

[*]

Only worry in the world is the tide gonna reach my chair

Sunrise there's a fire in the sky

Never been so happy, never felt so high

And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

This champagne shore washing over me

It's a sweet, sweet life living by the salty sea

One day you could be as lost as me

Change you're geography

Maybe you might be

CaddG [x1]

Knee deep in the water somewhere

And I think I might have found me my own kind of paradise

[x1] [x1]

Come on in the water's nice, find yourself a little slice

[x1] [x1] [x1] [x1] [x1]

Grab a backpack of lies, you never know until you try

[x1] CaddG

When you lose yourself, you find the key to paradise

~ADDIONAL LEAD RIFF~

This is the lead guitar lick that is played occasionally throughout the song

(marked by [*]). It just consists of keeping the forefinger on the 11th fret of

the B and high E string while hammering on with either the middle or ring finger

and the pinky. Since it requires 2 guitars, I did not include it in my main work

(although the ending little lick in the Intro Riff is also a second guitar, but I

decided to put that in as it's manageable to play with everything else), but if

anyone is interested, here's the tabs! :)

Key:

p pull-off

h hammer-on

s slide

x muted string
