[Intro]
D D G D
[Verse 1]
D G
There's a channel. There's a tunnel
D
You can sail by train, from the English coast
G
There's an ocean with no tunnel
D
You can sail by mail, but go parcel post
[Prechorus]
A
There's nothing but the waves, the fish & the kelp
G
In between her & him
A
They entertain the thought about meeting halfway
D G
But neither knows how to swim
[Chorus]
Bm A
He has a pump, she has a pail
D G
They'll empty this quarry soon
Bm A
Stand on a rock and see each other wave
G
And for now that will have to do
D
Till the Atlantic's dry
[Verse 2]
D G
There's a lighthouse, there's an outhouse
D
Both rely on a torch, just different bulbs
G
He sends flowers- it takes hours
Bm D
Just to lie on her porch, they're quite different bulbs
[Prechorus]
A
There's nothing but the waves, the fish & the kelp
G
In between her & him
A
They entertain the thought about meeting halfway
D G
But neither knows how to swim
[Chorus]
Bm A
He has a pump, she has a pail
D G
They'll empty this quarry soon
Bm A
Stand on a rock and see each other wave
G
And for now that will have to do
D
Till the Atlantic's dry
[Bridge]
C G
Bridge the distance, drain the ocean
C Bm
Pave a highway on the sandy floor
C G Gm A
Part the waters with devotion- it's just a thought
D G
A reunion near Bermuda
D
They're too tired to hug, they just stand and gleam
Dehydrated yet elated
G D
& they suddenly wake, they've both shared a dream
[Prechorus]
A
There's nothing but the waves, the fish & the kelp
G
In between her & him
A
They entertain the thought about meeting halfway
D G
But neither knows how to swim
[Chorus]
Bm A
He has a pump, she has a pail
D G
They'll empty this quarry soon
Bm A
Stand on a rock and see each other wave
G
And for now that will have to do
[Outro]
Bm A
Till the airfares drop to Greyhound rates
G
For now that will have to do
Bm A
Till Mother Earth moves and shifts some plates
G
For now that will have to do
Bm A
Till the Crown reclaims the United States
G
For now that will have to do
Bm A
Till Saint Peter opens up Heaven's gates
G
For now that will have to do
D
Till the Atlantic's dry
A G D
