Walk on the Ocean
by Toad the Wet Sprocket
I checked out the other tab for this song but I'm pretty sure that
they aren't right. This sounds really good when you play it with
any version, even the ones with John Mayer.

( and are actually called and
durring the verses but for space I used C and G.)
Capo four
Try sliding and hammering up and down patterns for A G and D
and they all sound really cool.
We spotted the ocean at the head of the trail
Aslide
where are we going, so far away?
Now somebody told me that this is the place
slide
Where everything's better, and everything's safe
(Chorus)
G1 G1,,
Walk on the ocean Step on the stones
G1 G1,,
Flesh becomes water Wood becomes bone
(Same as above for all the rest)
(Verse2)
Half an hour later we packed up our things
Said we'd send letters, and all of those little things
And they knew we were lying, but they smiled just the same
It seemed they'd already forgotten we came
(Chorus)
same as above
(Bridge]
same as chorus
(Verse)
Back at the homestead, where the air makes you choke
And people don't know you and trust is a joke
We don't even have pictures, just memories to hold
That grow sweeter each season as we slowly grow old
