        D5         D5    G5       E5       
Verse:  Rain hits my head hard, It seems like this never will stop
        D5  D5    G5        E5
        I close my eyes, and I'm like a girl in a crib
        D5  D5             G5         E5
        Afraid of what might come, but too scared to miss it, I know
        D5  D5             G5 
        I wouldn't miss you
                E5
        for the world

Intro 2:        D5          D5         G5      E5

            D5      D5    G5      E5
Verse:  But I'm so lonely, well, I guess I have myself to blame
        D5       D5    G5         E5
        Cause I led you north, and I can't stop thinking of you
        D5     D5             G5           E5
        You remind me of somebody else, someone you'd have seen in a film
        D5     D5         G5
        And I wouldn't miss you

                A5
Bridge: for the world
                                E5
        So then I pick up my guitar
                                  A5
        And describe you in a song
                             E5        
        Like so many else did,
                                        A5
        But not exactly the same way as I
                                       E5
        Cause I describe your peculiar figure
                                   A5
        And then I form a peculiar song
                                       E5
        And by then you'll have made a difference


Biss: D5                      D5            
        Oh, let me take you to Montauk
        G5                        A5        B5
        Cause that's where we're meant to be
        E5                         A5  
        We'll hit the road when you come back
        G5                 A5
        And I'll walk you to the beach

Solo:   D5       D5    G5      E5
        A5       Bb?7  B5
        D5       D5    G5      E5
        A5       Bb?7  B5

        (chords only, play around with them for something more interesting, or 
call a friend with a Stratocaster)


        E5         A5           Bb?7  
Chorus: Oh, let me take you to Montauk
        E5                     A5        B5
        Cause that's where I'm meant to be
        E5                          A5
        We'll hit the road when you come back
        G5                 A5      E5   
        And I'll take you to the beach
        Bb?7                       G5                  
        I know you'd like to see the beach


Outro:          D5          D5         G5      E5               (x2)

         | -------2---2222---2---2222-----0-------0--0---0---------- |

         | -------x----------x------------2-------2----------------- | 
         | -------x----------x------------3-------0----------------- | 

        End on E5 , let ring on the last couple of notes.
