Ocean Avenue (acoustic chords) - Yellowcard
Tabbed by: St
Tuning: Standard

Intro: E F#m D D or E F#m5 D5 D5 (I do prefer you use power chords, it sounds better to 
that way. But take note that I use E(major) even when using the power chords)

E                  F#m          D
There's a place off Ocean Avenue

                                    E
Where I used to sit and talk with you

             F#m                  D
We were both 16 and it felt so right

                                E   F#m    D
Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiiight

               E  F#m  D
Staying up all ni-iiight


E                      F#m                    D
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street

                                           E
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet

             F#m                    D
We were both 18 and it felt so right

                                 E   F#m  D
Sleeping all day, staying up all ni-iiight

               E  F#m D
Staying up all ni-iight

             E        F#m
If I could find you now

D
Things would get better

           E          F#m
We could leave this town

D
And run forever
              E          F#m
I know some where, some how

D
We'll be together

          E          F#m
Let your waves crash down on me

D
And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah


(verse)
Theres a piece of you that's here with me
Its everywhere I go
It's everything I see
When I sleep
I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight


(chorus)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We could leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yeah-i-yeah-ehyeah

Then:

A
I remember that look in your eyes

F#m
When I told you this was good bye

E                         
You were begging me not tonight

D
Not here
A
Not now

A
We look up at the same night sky

F#m
We keep pretending the sun will not rise

E
We'll be together for one more night

D
Some where

A
Some how

(Chorus Chords)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We would leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yea
