Nothingâ??s happening by the sea          Chris Rea   Album: Water Sign 1983

Intro:  E       A      E


E               A                      E
Salty river,       falls asleep in the bay.
A                                       E
Always gets there, never early, never late.
Am
Nothingâ??s happening
D                               E
   Nothingâ??s happening, by the sea.


A
White waves tumbledown
A                          E
And gently roll back into blue.
A
  On wooden seats outside the bar
                              E
The couples make their rendezvous.

Am
  Nothingâ??s happening
D                              E
  Nothingâ??s happening, by the sea


Lead Break / Bridge:    A       E    A                E      Am     D     E

A
The trouble has been found
                                   E
Thereâ??s too far up, and too many downs.
A
  Iâ??ve found a level that feels just right.
                                          E
Thereâ??s no mistaking where Iâ??m going to-night
Am                      D                              E
  Nothingâ??s happeningâ?¦â?¦....Nothingâ??s happening, by the sea

Am                      D                              E
Nothingâ??s happeningâ?¦â?¦â?¦â?¦....Nothingâ??s happening, by the seaâ?¦â?¦â?¦To FAde...
