Capo 5th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Verse 1
Coconut Grove
Is a very small cove
Separated from the sea
By a shifting shoal
We didnt realize that
We had arrived
At high tide, high tide
Barely made it out alive
Chorus
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Verse 2
Red over white
Fishermen working at night
Not even once
Did we see a light
We didnt realize
The forecast had been revised
By moonless skies and
Shifty wind that gusts and dies
Bridge
Ooh On the sand our keel is heaving
But tonight weve got to be leaving
Travel through the day and into the evening
Chorus
Marathon how long weve been gone
And still not yet set foot upon you
Outro
Your low lying shore opens welcomingly
To one whos spent the night at sea
Adrift in the shallows, a modest repose
Adorn with coral, your bright colors show
Ushered in through a bridge that is never closed
