Vance Joy, Riptide (2013)
^{Key: :[Cm] (w: Vance Joy) (BPM: 102)}
INTRO: [Cm] [Bb] [Eb] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
[Cm] I was scared of [Bb] dentists and the [Eb] dark
[Cm] I was scared of [Bb] pretty girls and [Eb] starting conversations
Oh, [Cm] all my [Bb] friends are turning [Eb] green
You're the [Cm] magician's as-[Bb]-sistant in their [Eb] dreams

PRE-CHORUS 1:
[Cm] Ooh, [Bb] ooh, [Eb] ooh
[Cm] Ooh, [Bb] ooh, and they [Eb] come unstuck

CHORUS:
[Cm] Lady, [Bb] running down to the [Eb] riptide, taken away
To the [Cm] dark side, [Bb] I wanna be your [Eb] left hand man
I [Cm] love you [Bb] when you're singing that [Eb] song, and I got a lump
In my [Cm] throat, 'cause [Bb] you're gonna sing the [Eb] words wrong

VERSE 2:
[Cm] There's this movie [Bb] that I think you'll [Eb] like
This [Cm] guy decides to [Bb] quit his job and [Eb] heads to New York City
This [Cm] cowboy's [Bb] running from [Eb] himself
And [Cm] she's been living [Bb] on the highest [Eb] shelf

REPEAT PRE-CHORUS:

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: [*R1]

BRIDGE:
[Cm] I just wanna, I just wanna [Bb] know
[Eb] If you're gonna, if you're gonna [Abmaj7] stay
[Cm] I just gotta, I just gotta know [Bb]
[Eb] I can't have it, I can't have it [Abmaj7] any other way

PRE-CHORUS 2:
[Cm] I swear she's [Bb] destined for the [Eb] screen
[Cm] Closest thing to [Bb] Michelle Pfeiffer [Eb] that you've ever seen, oh

REPEAT CHORUS: [x3]
