i want to bury you up to your neck in the sand
                               G
exposing only your head and one hand
                                    C
we'll find a friend who will bury me too


C                                                    F
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands just me and you
C                                  G             C
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands, me and you

C
the crabs will arrive and they'll pick at your face
                                               G
but I'll whistle so they'll pick at mine in your place
                                                    C
then the gulls will arrive, eat the crabs for their food


C                                                    F
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands just me and you
C                                  G             C
so we'll stand in the sand holding hands, me and you


       G              F           G               F
if the tide takes me away, if the tide takes you away
        G             F               C
if the tide takes us away, we'll meet here
            G
in the sand
      C                      G 
never fear, just look to the sand


C
if the waves come in, well we'll both surely drown
                                           G
but to stay here with you makes me hold my ground
C
lets just make sure we're buried far enough up the beach

C                                          F
to stand in the sand holding hands you and me
            C                        G             C
yeah we'll stand in the sand holding hands you and me

       G              F           G               F
if the tide takes me away, if the tide takes you away
        G             F               C
if the tide takes us away, we'll meet here
            G
in the sand
      C                      G 
never fear, just look to the sand
       C                     G
