A tourist oasis
Reflects in seedy sunshades
A monstrous oil tanker
Its wound bleeding in seas

______________________________________________________________

Here's a wee update.

Try playing it with...

        EADGBe
    C  (032010)
Esus2  (222452)
Gsus2  (555785)
Dadd9  (x70770) in place of Dsus2

This sounds a bit brighter and is easier to transit to the riff.

Enjoy  :)
