Walk On The Ocean Tabs

(ver. 1)
Toad The Wet Sprocket

I would appreciate it if someone could post the chords to "Walk on the Ocean"

First off, capo on 4th fret. Thus all the 4's below are like open
strings. The chords used throughout the song are:

---(7)-------(4)------------------(4)---------6----
----7---------7----------6---------7----------7----
----4---------4----------6---------4----------6----
----4---------6----------6---------6----------4----
----6---------7----------4---------6----------4----
----7------------------------------4----------6----

    B         E          Db       Abm         F#

The parentheses signify notes that only get played occasionally.
For the F#, the 6 on the low E string may or may not be played, but
it's a nice way to follow the bass line. You'll probably want to use
your thumb for that note.

The verse goes:

 | B  E | B  Db | Abm  E | B  Db | B  E | B  F# | Db | Db :|

The chorus goes:

 | Abm  F# | B | F# | Db | Abm  F# | B | F# | Db ||

In the measures with Abm and F#, the F# is only played on the last
beat, serving as a passing chord to the B (now you can see why the
bass line is important -- here it goes Ab Bb B, kinda cool)

The chorus and solo have the same chords. The final verse has the
same chords and the other verses except the measure | Abm  E |
becomes | Abm F# |.

That's pretty much the whole song. All other Toad requests are
welcome, either by emailing or posting, cause Toad kicks butt.

Later,

Dave Shapiro
