The Ocean Acoustic Chords & Tabs
So I'm pretty sure this is 95% correct (don't hold it against me as I am open to
suggestions). Tried to get the tuning as precise as I could because the other tabs are in
standard tuning. So, for those like me who prefer exact tuning: give it a go and comment
below for any suggestions, etc.

When you wake what is it that you think of most?
When your bed is empty do you really sleep alone?
If I imagine you, body next to another.
All around me new love and it makes me sad.
All around me feel assured that you'll be back,
If I imagine you, body next to another.

Stop crying to the ocean, stop crying over me.
Stop worrying over nothing, stop worrying over me.

On the drive back here I was worrying over nothing
On the drive back there tears spilling over something
When I imagine you, body next to another
In the door and you're there and you're sorry for the fright
In the door, can I hear you saying you don't wanna fight
When I imagine you, body next to another

In a flash it's back to you, just brought attention to the mess.
In a flash you're on top begging me to understand.
If I imagine you, body next to another.
You drop in for a minute and I'm sorry that I didn't drop in sooner
just to see you and see what you've been doin'.
Well I imagine you, body next to another.
