CAPO 5

Verse 1
G        Em
Coconut Grove 
     C         D
Is a very small cove
     G             Em
Separated from the sea
     C          D
By a shifting shoal
G         Em
We didnt realize that
C        D
We had arrived
G            Em
At high tide, high tide
C              D
Barely made it out alive

Chorus
G                Em
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
C               D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
G               Em
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
C               D
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 

Verse 2
G        Em
Red over white 
        C            D
Fishermen working at night
G        Em
Not even once
    C        D
Did we see a light
G         Em
We didnt realize
C                  D
The forecast had been revised 
G            Em
By moonless skies and
C                D                      
Shifty wind that gusts and dies

Bridge
G          Em               C
Ooh On the sand our keel is heaving
D                           G
But tonight weve got to be leaving
            Em             C         D
Travel through the day and into the evening

G   Em   C   D

Chorus
G   Em       C              D
Marathon how long weve been gone
     G        Em      C      D
And still not yet set foot upon you

Outro
Em               D
Your low lying shore opens welcomingly 
Em                     D
To one whos spent the night at sea
G             Em          C         D
Adrift in the shallows, a modest repose
G          Em          C             D
Adorn with coral, your bright colors show
G       Em           C            D        G
Ushered in through a bridge that is never closed    

Em   C   D   G
