          D          Cadd9        
Bought a pancho and sandals I 
    G
threw away my shoes
Brought a toothbrush and a razor I 
probably won't use
Hit the track, turned my back on the
 Headline News
On my way to meet the moon on the 
bay where she's risin' big and full 
and blue

Intro Riff

Well the gringo boys got their dark 
sunglasses
Continues after the ad
Remove ads
And the girls on the beach are all 
shakin' their fingers
'Cause no matter how dark the lenses
 they can see
That the eyes and the minds of the 
boys are somewhere they ain't 
supposed to be....

Intro Riff x2

No one recalls when the clock on the
 wall
Stopped wavin' its hands all day
Maybe it died of loneliness or 
boredom
Rest in peace, you know it's better 
this way

Chorus

Bridge:
C                                
  And all my friends are laughin' at
G
 each other's lies
D                         Em
  And the sea is singin' lullabies
Chorus Riff x2.5
Everything's slowin' down flowin' 
counterclockwise
(Everything's slowin' down flowin' 
counterclockwise)
Everything's slowin' down flowin' 
counterclockwise

Intro Riff x2

Now some of the Americans are ugly 
Americans
But we know we ain't all that way
So we nod and we smile and we wait a
 little while
Because they never stay anywhere 
very long anyway

Bridge
