  G                        D
A peacock, people left the plumes in a pile
C                 D
They look good to fold
        G                 D
And the Gulf water's warm like a bathtub
C                          D
Full of lavender and epsom salt

      G                        D
See a bleach blond boy put his longboard down
C                               D
Help his girl get her sunscreen on
  G                         D
I thought about you in your little house
              C                     D
Think you're lonely but I could be wrong and...

C            D
I wanna be a bootlegger
C                          D
Wanna mix you up something strange
C                      D
Braid your hair like a sister
C                    D
Maim you like a hurricane

G                       D       C               D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G                      D            C          D
He's got a letter to deliver, but I can't stay mad
G                       D       C               D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
           G                  D
He's got a get-well-card to deliver
           C        D                C        D
He's gonna do it by hand, he's gonna do it by hand

         G                     D
Now they drive the cars up and down the beach
        C                     D
It's ridiculous and everybody knows
         G                   D
Hear the Mustangs rev at the four way stop
        C                           D
You get ghosted when the light says go
         G                      D
But in a town like this, in the chequered flag dawn
         C                            D
It's so empty you could make somebody dream
   G                       D
So maybe it's you, in your four-post bed
      C                               D
Found asleep with still blood in your teeth and...

  C                D
I wanna be your happiness
  C                D
I wanna be your common sense pain
  C                 D
Wrap your head in a picket fence
  C                D
Rebuild after the hurricane


G                       D       C               D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G                      D            C          D
He's got a letter to deliver, but i'm still not mad
G                       D       C               D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
           G                  D
He's got a get-well-card to deliver
           C        D               
He's gonna do it by hand,
           C                 D 
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it
           B                 C
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it,
           D                             G
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it... by hand


G                       D       C               D
Right there, that's the postman sleeping in the sand
G                      D            C          D
He's got a letter to deliver, but I can't stay mad
G                       D       C               D
Right there, that's the postman asleep in the sand
           G                  D
He's got a headstack now to deliver
           C        D           
He's gonna do it by hand,  
           C                 D 
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it
           B                 C
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it,
           D                             G
He's gonna do it, he's gonna do it... by hand
