ME BY THE SEA (Edie Brickell)

-----------------------------

[Capo 1.]

[The A* measures in the verses are actually A - Asus9 - A,

alternating between 0 and 2 on the B string.  Similarly, E* is

E - Esus4 - E, switching between 1 and 2 on the G string.]

[Hammer on from 0 to 2 on the A string in the E chords after

the line, "I can't on my own."]

[F#m7(4) is 244200.  Use your thumb.]

A*  Dsus9  A*  Asus9    A*  Dsus9  A  Asus9

[intro]

    A*            Dsus9      A*        Asus9

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

    A*            Dsus9   Esus4          E

I'm glad no one's here to mess it up for me

    A*            Dsus9      F#m7(4)   E

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

    Bm            G             A    A

But man, I wish I had a hand to hold

A*  Dsus9  A*  Asus9    A*  Dsus9  A  Asus9

[instrumental]

  A                 Dsus9       A         Asus9

I saw an orange starfish on the side of a rock

  A*           Dsus9    Esus4             E*

I poked on his back and tried to pull him off

    A*            Dsus9       F#m7(4)     E

A crab scared me away, he ran close to my toes

    Bm            G             A    A

And man, I wish I had a hand to hold

A*  Dsus9  A*  Asus9      A*  Dsus9  Esus4  E*

[instrumental]

A*  Dsus9  F#m7(4)  E     Bm   G   A   A

[instrumental]

    A*        Dsus9         A*           Asus9

The moon is nowhere, almost time for the sun

    A*           Dsus9        Esus4       E*

The voice of the waves sounds anciently young

      A*          Dsus9        F#m7(4)     E

I'm a prisoner of freedom, ten toes in the sand

    Bm            G             A    A

And man, I wish I had a hand to hold

G          G        D      D

I'm in the habit of being alone

Dm            Dm          A           E   E   E   E

I try hard to break it, I can't on my own

    A*            Dsus9      A*        Asus9

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

    A*            Dsus9   Esus4          E*

I'm glad no one's here to mess it up for me

    A*            Dsus9      F#m7(4)   E

I'm glad no one's here, just me by the sea

    Bm            G             A    A

But man, I wish I had a hand to hold

Bm   G   A   A

[instrumental]

A*  Dsus9  A*  Asus9     A*  Dsus9  Esus4  E*

[instrumental]

A*  Dsus9  F#m7(4)  E    Bm   G   A   A.

[instrumental]
