[Intro]
E Esus E Esus
EAfternoon Esuslow tide - Eworkin' on my Esusplan
Got Eone hand in the water - the other in the sand
Two Dbeers in a cooler - Aone warm heart in Eplace
Got a picture in a Esusbotttle - one Enailed up to a Esuspalm tree
EOne out in the wind - and they all look like me
I want Dsomebody to be - the Afeeling's all over my B7face
Oh, I've Enever been more ready than I G#mam right now
I know Asooner or later - someway somehow
Some F#mbody's gonna walk up and B7join somebody sittin' right EhereD  
So wher Aever, who E/G#ever you F#mareB7  
The coast is Eclear
I Eclose my Esuseyes and the Esound of the Esuswaves
ECarries me forward - to better days
And they Dopen my eyes to the Awoman of my dreams strol Eling in
With a small touch of Esusshyness - and a Esmooth kind of Esusstyle
She Ekisses me on the cheek and she says with a smile
I've been Dwaiting all my life for Ayou baby - where have you B7been
Oh, I've Enever been more ready than I G#mam right now
I know Asooner or later - someway somehow
Some F#mbody's gonna walk up and B7join somebody sittin' right EhereD  
So wher Aever, who E/G#ever you F#mareB7  
The coast is Eclear
So wher Aever, whoe E/G#ver you F#mareB7  
The coast is Eclear
EAfternoon low tide - I'm just workin' on my plan
E/G#Right F#mnow
Right B7here
The coast is Eclear
