                            "Coconut Grove"
                    (John Sebastian - Zal Yanofsky)

Intro:

	acoustic guitar [4X; electric guitar enters 3rd time]

	                  : 02203x   : x0202x
	 / / /  / / /

Verse 1:

	                 
	   It's really true    how nothin' matters
	                  
	   No mad, mad world    and no mad hatters
	                        
	   And no-one's pitchin' 'cause there ain't no batters
	    
	In Coconut Grove

Verse 2:

	                     
	    Don't bar the door,    there's no-one comin'
	                  
	    The ocean's roar    will dull the drummin'
	                                   
	    Of any city thoughts or city ways

Bridge:

	 [w/autoharp]
	  The ocean breeze is coolin' my mind
	                            
	The salty days are hers and mine
	                             
	Just to do what we want to

	 
	Tonight we'll find a dune that's ours
	                               
	And softly she will speak the stars
	               
	Until sunup

Verse 3 (chords as per verse 1):

	It's all from havin' someone knowin'
	Just which way your head is blowin'
	Who's always warm like in the mornin'
	In Coconut Grove
