Tom : D
| G | D | (2x)
[Verse 1]
G
The waves come in
D
Crash on the shoreline
G D
Salty water, don't you know it's yours, yours and mine
G
So grab your girl
D
And don't go wastin' time
C D G
And let's go down to the water tonight
G
White capped clouds
D
Dance in the sunlight
G
Purple fishes watch
D
And show you some of their delight
G
The weather's fine
D
And everything's all right
C D G
So let's go down to the water tonight
C D G
Let's go down to the water tonight
[Chorus 2x]
Em A
Come on down, come on down
C D
Come on down, down to the water
D
Down to the water
[Solo]
| G | D | (3x)
| C D | G |
[Verse 2]
G
Island music
D
Sways with a palm tree
G
Friends of mine lay back
D
And talk of times that weren't so free
G
So let's have fun
D
And that means you and me
C D G
And let's go down to the water tonight
C D G
Let's go down to the water tonight
[Outro 2x]
G D
Down, down, down to the water
G D
Down, down, down to the water
G Em A D
Down, down, down to the water
