Is your jeweller[C]y still l[G]ost in the san[D]d[C]
Out on the c[G]oast,[D] or rushed into the br[C]ine?
You left your r[G]ings [D] on the s[C]horeline
So you wouldn't l[G]ose them[D] swimming in the s[C]hallows
[D] A plastic s[G]hovel, soft sweaty c[C]hildren far from home
On v[D]acation not un[G]like your very [C]own
[C]And the captain howdy [G]lit [D] upon my s[C]houlder
And he left me with s[G]ulphur [D] and rooms full of h[C]eadaches
I fell in with s[G]nakes [D] in the poisoned ranks of str[C]angers
Please send me m[G]ore yellow b[D]irds for the dim int[C]erior
[D]Will my p[G]ony recogn[C]ise my voice in hell?
[D]Will he s[G]till be blind, or d[C]o they go by smell?
[D]Will you pr[G]omise not to r[C]est me out at sea
[D]But on a f[G]iery river b[C]oat that's rickety?
[D]I'll never f[G]ind my pony [C]along the rolling swell
[D]A muddy r[G]iver or a l[C]ake would do me well
[D]With hints of [G]amber sundowns and m[C]oody thunderstorms
A s[G]unken barge's horns, with the c[C]old rusty bells [D]
Out on the c[G]oast,[D] or rushed into the br[C]ine?
You left your r[G]ings [D] on the s[C]horeline
