G D
A peacock, people left the plumes in a pile
C D
They look good to fold
G D
And the Gulf water's warm like a bathtub
C D
Full of lavender and epsom salt
G D
See a bleach blond boy put his longboard down
C D
Help his girl get her sunscreen on
G D
I thought about you in your little house
C D
Think you're lonely but I could be wrong and...
C D
I wanna be a bootlegger
C D
Wanna mix you up something strange
C D
Braid your hair like a sister
C D
Maim you like a hurricane
G D C D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G D C D
He's got a letter to deliver, but I can't stay mad
G D C D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G D
He's got a get-well-card to deliver
C D C D
He's gonna do it by hand, he's gonna do it by hand
G D
Now they drive the cars up and down the beach
C D
It's ridiculous and everybody knows
G D
Hear the Mustangs rev at the four way stop
C D
You get ghosted when the light says go
G D
But in a town like this, in the chequered flag dawn
C D
It's so empty you could make somebody dream
G D
So maybe it's you, in your four-post bed
C D
Found asleep with still blood in your teeth and...
C D
I wanna be your happiness
C D
I wanna be your common sense pain
C D
Wrap your head in a picket fence
C D
Rebuild after the hurricane
G D C D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G D C D
He's got a letter to deliver, but i'm still not mad
G D C D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G D
He's got a get-well-card to deliver
C D
He's gonna do it by hand,
C D
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it
B C
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it,
D G
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it... by hand
G D C D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G D C D
He's got a letter to deliver, but I can't stay mad
G D C D
Right there, that's the postman asleep in the sand
G D
He's got a headstack now to deliver
C D
He's gonna do it by hand,
C D
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it
B C
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it,
D G
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it... by hand
