Biography:
Queens of the Stone Age is a rock band from Palm Desert, California, United States. The band is frequently labeled stoner rock, although they reject the label. They developed a style of riff-oriented, heavy music which the band's founder and mastermind Josh Homme described as "robot rock", saying that he "wanted to create a heavy sound based on a solid jam, just pound it into your head". Since then, their sound has evolved to incorporate a variety of different styles and influences.

Queens of the Stone Age - I sat by the Ocean (acoustic version)
[Intro]
C / Am / D / E
[Verse 1]
E E/F# G D E
I sat by the ocean and drank a potion, baby to erase you.
C Am E
Face down in the Boulevard, yet I couldn't face you.
E E/F# G D
There ain't no use in crying. It doesn't change anything,
E
So baby what good does it do?
C Am
Your friends, they all sympathize.
E
Maybe, I don't need them too.
[Chorus]
C E
Imagine I'd be your one and only
C E
Instead I'm the lonely one
C D E
You, me and a lie.
Am D E C
Silence is closer. We're passing ships in the night.
[Verse 2]
E
There's nowhere to run away.
E/F# G Said, D E
“Boy if you want love, you'll have to go and find it with someone new.”
C Am E
“Do you know who you really are? Are you sure it's really you?”
E
Lies are a funny thing.
E/F# G D E
They slip through your fingertips because they never happened to you.
C Am E
Time wounds all the heals as we fade out of view.
[Chorus]
C E
Imagine I'd be your one and only
C E
Instead I'm the lonely one
C D E
You, me and a lie. |
Am D E C | x2
Silence is closer. We're passing ships in the night. |
[Bridge]
E C
Into the night,
E C
Left with nowhere to hide.
[Instrumental]
C / Am / D / E x2
[Outro]
Am D
Closer and closer.
E C
We're crashing ships in the night
C / Am / D / E x2 (end on E)
