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