Version 1 Version 2
            Santa Monica
by Everclear

Attempt at rhythm -

if you can't pick it up from the song, here's a valiant attempt..

Verse -

G5   G5   x x x x    G5   G5   G5/E   G5   G5   x x x x

(repeat.. the x's represent muting the strings and stumming)

Same basic strumming technique throughout the rest of the song.


[Verse I]

                                    G5     G5/E   G5
           I am still living with your ghost
                  G5/E         G5      G5/E  G5
           Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
                      G5/E               D5   E5    C5
           I don't want to be your downtime
                  C5    D5     G5
           I don't want to be your stupid game


[Verse II]

                                    G5     G5/E   G5
           With my big black boots and an old suitcase
                  G5/E         G5      G5/E  G5
           I do believe I'll find myself a new place
                      G5/E               D5   E5    C5
           I don't want to be the bad guy
                  C5    D5     G5
           I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore

           I just want to see some palm trees
           Go and try to shake away this disease

[Chorus]
                                C5
           We can live beside the ocean
           C5            D5          G5
           Leave the fire behind
           G5               E5     D5
           Swim out past the breakers
           D5          C5      G5
           Watch the world die


[Verse III]

                                    G5     G5/E   G5
           I am still dreaming of your face
                  G5/E         G5      G5/E  G5
           Hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
                      G5/E               D5   E5    C5
           I don't want to be your good time
                  C5    D5     G5
           I don't want to be your fall-back crutch anymore


[Verse IV]

                                    G5     G5/E   G5
           I'll walk right out into a brand new day
                  G5/E         G5      G5/E  G5
           Insane and rising in my own weird way
                      G5/E               D5   E5    C5
           I don't want to be the bad guy
                  C5    D5     G5
           I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore

           I just want to feel some sunshine
           I just want to find some place to be alone


[Chorus]
                                C5
           We can live beside the ocean
           C5            D5          G5
           Leave the fire behind
           G5               E5     D5
           Swim out past the breakers
           D5          C5      G5
           Watch the world die
