Walk on the ocean  Toad The Wet Sprocket



[verse1] 
G C G C G --> (you can walk the bass note up
We spotted the ocean at the head of the trail from E to G here, or not)
C            G C G          A  --->    (hammer on the second string of the A

where are we going, so far away? from the 2nd fret to the 3rd fret)
A G C G C G --> (again, walk the bass up)
Now somebody told me that this is the place
      C            G C G              A       --> (do that A hammer-on again--

Where everything's better, and everything's safe in fact, do it for every A)


[cborus] 
[A]Walk on the [G]ocean  Step on the [D]stones[A]
[A]Flesh becomes [G]water  Wood becomes [D]bone[A]
[verse2] 
[A]Half an hour [G]la[C]te[G]r  we [C]packed up our [G]things
[C]Said we'd send [G]le[C]tt[G]ers, and all of those [A]little things
[A]And they knew we were [G]ly[C]in[G]g, but they [C]smiled just the [G]same
It [C]seemed they'd [G]al[C]re[G]ady  forgotten we [A]came
[cborus] 
same as above
[bridge] 
just play the chords to the chorus
over four times (I think)
[verse3] 
[A]Back at the [G]ho[C]me[G]stead, where the [C]air makes you [G]choke
And [C]people don't [G]kn[C]ow[G] you  and trust is a [A]joke
[A]We don't even have [G]pi[C]ct[G]ures, just [C]memories to [G]hold
That grow [C]sweeter each [G]se[C]as[G]on  as we slowly grow [A]old

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,
