Walt Grace’s Submarine Test, January 1967 John Mayer
[F#]Walt Grace, desperately hating this whole pl[G#m/B]ace
Dreamed [Em7]to discover a ne[C#]w space and bur[B6]ied himself alive
Inside his basem[F#]ent. Tongue on the side of his f[G#m/B]ace meant
He's working away on displacemen[Em7]t and what it wou[C#]ld take to survive[B6]

[G#m]Cause when you're done w[F#]ith this world[C#]
[G#m]You know the next [F#]is up to you[C#]
[F#]And his wife told his ki[B]ds he was crazy[C#]
[F#]And his friends said he'[B]d fail if he tr[C#]ied
But with[F#] the will to work hard a[B]nd a libra[Em7]ry card[G#]
He took a homema[B]de, fan blade, one-man s[C#]ubmarine ride[F#]
That morning the sea was mad and I mean it
Waves as big as he'd seen it deep in his dreams at home
From dry land, he rolled it over to wet sand
Closed the hatch up with one hand
And pedaled off alone
Cause when you're done with this world
You know the next is up to you
And for once in his life, it was quiet
As he learned how to turn in the tide
And the sky was a flare when he came up for air
In his homemade, fan blade, one-man submarine ride
- Solo has the same chords as the chorus. -
One evening, when weeks had passed since his leaving
The call she planned on receiving finally made it home
She accepted the news she never expected
The operator connected the call from Tokyo
Cause when you're done with this world
You know the next is up to you
Now his friends bring him up when they're drinking
At the bar with his name on the side
And they smile when they kid, as they speak of the man
Who took a homemade, fan blade, one-man submarine ride
* NOTE: John Mayer is flirting with C#sus4 chord every now and then at the first
two line of the chorus. Give it a try.
