Rock Coast Blues
Country Joe and the Fish
I would recommend barring the majority of the chords except for D and E this makes the quick transitions less challenging and sounds closer to the album version than if they were to be played open. [Intro] [Verse 1] Movin’ down that rock coast line Oh nothin’ but my woman on my mind Hear those waves poundin’ on sand Smell that sea air blowin’ inland I wonder if she’s found another man oh! Black stone roadway by the sea Oh I wonder if she’s a-missing me Four-wheeled clock keeps tickin’ off time Measured minutes by a broken white line Wonder if I’m really on her mind oh. [Chorus] And now in my thoughts I feel her eyes Feel her smilin’ by my side Then I turn around and see There’s nobody sittin’ here but me yeah! [Verse 2] Rubber tired oh lonesome song Tells me that I’ve done something wrong Days before and then we parted I wonder why I even started Thinkin’ I’ve been gone far too long. Moving past those rocks and waves I wonder how she spends her days Watch the sun as we go by Throwin’ colors off the water sky Thinkin’ about the rainbows in my baby’s eyes. Movin’ past those pine-cone trees Sorry that I had to leave High above on a twisted road Ocean movin’ down below I wonder just how far I have to go. [Chorus] And now in my thoughts I feel her eyes Feel her smilin’ by my side Then I turn around and see There’s nobody sittin’ here but me yeah! [Verse 3] Rubber tired oh lonesome song Tells me that I’ve done something wrong Days before and then we parted I wonder why I even started Thinkin’ I’ve been gone far too long. [Outro] (repeat this progression until fade) Yeah I’ve been gone too long Oh now don’t you know I’ve been gone too long oh yeah. Yeah woman oh I’ve been gone too long yeah Yeah now little girl I’m coming home yes. Mm you know that I’m coming on home Yeah you know ...
