Verse:
[C]A man darkened our doorway
He said he?s here to share the good news
He had a smile straight from the movies
But when I looked down at his shoes
There were ho[F]les and they showed his toes
The right was left, the black was bro[C]wn
And later[G] on in the garage I couldn?t find my cha[F]insaw
In the distance I heard [C]trees just falling down [G]
[C]I was underneath the city
I was riding around on trains
Fell asleep before Nassau Ave. and I ended up in Maine
There we[F]re big tall trees and rocky coastline
And the waves came in so wild[C]
But for [G]all the natural beauty there
were st[F]ill so many kids
That were asking[C] me for something that could help them to get hi[G]gh
Chorus:
We?re al[F]l good, we?re all bad
We?re eu[C]phoric and we?re sad
We roll [F]the rock away and check the tomb[C]
We?re aw[A]ake and we?re aware
That we?[C]re confused and cold and scared
And the [F]cross reminds us that He died fo[G]r me and you
Woke up in the ocean with the Ho[C]nolulu Blues
Verse:
[C]Joan Didion and Graham Greene
Said roughly the same thing
You bring your Jesus to the jungle
Try to teach people to sing
All those hym[F]ns that you love
Because you learned them as a kid and they make perfect[C] sense to you
There?s [G]a point in time when thousands die
And you?[F]ve got to maybe think
that maybe Jesus i[C]sn?t getting through[G]
We?re fr[C]eezing in the forest
There?s no wood to heat the house
We took axes to the furniture
We pulled the floorboards out
There?s [F]animals scratching at the door
And they know we?re gonna die[C]
[G]There were big tall trees and rocky coas[F]tline
And the waves came in so w[C]ild[G]
Chorus:
We?re al[F]l wild, we?re all free
We?re al[C]l back from Tennessee
With the[F] souvenirs to prove that we were there[C]
We?re fl[A]ying around in planes
We?re ri[C]ding around in trains
S[F]earching out those panoramic vi[G]ews
Woke up in the ocean with the Ho[C]nolulu Blues
We?re al[F]l good, we?re all bad
We?re eu[C]phoric and we?re sad
We roll [F]the rock away and check the tomb[C]
We?re aw[A]ake and we?re alarmed
At the s[C]cars scratched in your arm
The cros[F]s reminds us that He died for me and you[G]
Woke up in Oahu with the[C] Honolulu Blues
