Drive along the sea
Far from the city's twitch and smoke

To a misty beach

That's where my life became a joke
On the dunes
On the dunes
[F#7-9]
(Became a joke on the dunes)
Where rents are high
And seabirds cry
On the dunes
As you spoke you must have known
It was a kind of homicide
+5/
I stood and watched my happiness
Am7addD [Ab7-5] -5
Drift outwards with the tide
On the dunes
On the dunes
[F#7-9]
(Homi cide on the dunes)
It wasn't fair
It's brutal there

On the dunes
Pretty boats
Sweeping along the shore
In the faltering light
Pretty women
With their lovers by their side

It's like an awful dream

I have most every night
In the summer all the swells
Join in the search for sun and sand

For me it's just a joyless place
Where this loneliness began
