Rocking On the Ocean- Shanneyganock
C G C
C
I've been away, I gotta say
G
It isn't really working for me
I've been all around about
I finally figured out
C
Nothing in life ever comes free
So I paid my dues, and I sang the blues
F
But it's not how it's gonna be
I'm headin' back to the island
C
Smell the salt air
G C
And rekindle some old mysteries
---------
C F
Like when we were rockin' on water
C
We were breathing fresh air
G
In her daddy's leaky dory
And I'm sticking to my story, sir
C
That's why we were late
F
Out there on the ocean
C
We didn't wanna be found
G
We were rockin' on the water
C
Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland
----------
G C
Every day it's all work and no play
G
Just gotta get my piece of the pie
Now that I realize it's just a big disguise
C
It's all just pie in the sky
I know what it means, I'm gonna follow my dreams
F
Gonna pack my bags and then
Head on back to the island
C G C
On the ocean, back to those memories again
----------
C F
Like when we were rockin' on water
C
We were breathing fresh air
G
In her daddy's leaky dory
And I'm sticking to my story, sir
C
That's why we were late and I swear
F
Out there on the ocean
C
We didn't wanna be found
G
We were rockin' on the water
C
Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland

C F C
We were rockin' on water, feelin' fancy and free
We were living nice and easy
It might sound a little cheesy
C
But it's all right for me
F
And I swear, out there on the ocean
C
We didn't wanna be found

We were rockin' on the water

Making things a little hotter back in Newfoundland
