[Intro]

G C D

[Verse 1]

I thought some time in the sun

Would help me get over you

But I could tell from day one

This is a place meant for two

Now here I sit on the beach

Watching the tide ebb and flow

I booked my room for a week

But now I'm ready to go

[Chorus]

I'm in a tropical depression

I've got the blue water blues

Can't shake this loving you obsession

Can't stand this sand in my shoes

This forgetting you vacation

Is just a fool's holiday

If I can't get over you

This tropical depression's gonna

Blow me away

[Interlude]

C D G

[Verse 2]

This should be paradise

Heaven down by the sea

Without you here by my side

It feels like hell to me

[Chorus]

I'm in a tropical depression

I've got the blue water blues

Can't shake this loving you obsession

Can't stand this sand in my shoes

This forgetting you vacation

Is just a fool's holiday

If I can't get over you

This tropical depression's gonna

Blow me away

[Tag]

If I can't get over you

This tropical depression's gonna

Blow me away

[Outro]
