Song: Riptide
Artist: Willy Mason
Album: If the ocean gets rough
Capo: 3rd
Standard Tuning
i need a new song, shift it all a
round, like th
e ocean
when the ri
ptide gets you down
take some, from the ones you l
ove, in the
old town
when the rip
tide gets you down
sing i can still breathe i can still walk
i can still see children walking up the dock
i remember when i carved my name into
this cedar tree
sing while i’m walking sammys on the rocks
with a new reel flashing casting as he talks
he came home from the city
when they chok
ed out all of his dreams
and i guess you could say that this is
me
and i guess that these folks are the only ones i be
lieve
everywhere i go i’m going to the oce
an
every river flows into the ocean
the water in my soul is going to the ocean
i sing the great unknown i’m singing to the ocean
sing i can still breathe i can still walk
i can still see children walking up the dock
i remember when i carved my name into
this cedar tree
sing while i’m walking sammys on the rocks
with a new reel flashing casting as he talks
he came home from the city
when they chok
ed out all of his dreams
i need a new song, shift it all ar
ound, like the
ocean
when the ri
ptide gets you down
take some, from the ones you l
ove, in the
old town
when the rip
tide gets you down
