[Intro:  ](E)  (Esus)  (E)  (Esus) 
 
(E) Afternoon (Esus) low tide - (E) workin' on my (Esus) plan 
Got (E) one hand in the water - the other in the sand 
Two (D) beers in a cooler - (A) one warm heart in (E) place 
Got a picture in a (Esus) botttle - one (E) nailed up to a (Esus) palm tree 
(E) One out in the wind - and they all look like me 
I want (D) somebody to be - the (A) feeling's all over my (B7) face 
 
Oh, I've (E) never been more ready than I (G#m) am right now 
I know (A) sooner or later - someway somehow 
Some(F#m)body's gonna walk up and (B7) join somebody sittin' right (E) here (D) 
So wher(A)ever, who(E/G#)ever you (F#m) are (B7) 
The coast is (E) clear 
 
I (E) close my (Esus) eyes and the (E) sound of the (Esus) waves 
(E) Carries me forward - to better days 
And they (D) open my eyes to the (A) woman of my dreams strol(E)ling in 
With a small touch of (Esus) shyness - and a (E) smooth kind of (Esus) style 
She (E) kisses me on the cheek and she says with a smile 
I've been (D) waiting all my life for (A) you baby - where have you (B7) been 
 
Oh, I've (E) never been more ready than I (G#m) am right now 
I know (A) sooner or later - someway somehow 
Some(F#m)body's gonna walk up and (B7) join somebody sittin' right (E) here (D) 
So wher(A)ever, who(E/G#)ever you (F#m) are (B7) 
The coast is (E) clear 
 
So wher(A)ever, whoe(E/G#)ver you (F#m) are (B7) 
The coast is (E) clear 
 
(E) Afternoon low tide - I'm just workin' on my plan 
(E/G#) Right (F#m) now 
Right (B7) here 
The coast is (E) clear
