[Verse]
D                               G                       D
Squalls out on the gulf stream,  big storms comin' soon

    G                 D      E7                          A7
I passed out in my hammock,  God, I slept 'till way past noon

G                       D    
Stood up and tried to focus  

                                    C   G   A
I hoped I wouldn't have to look far

  G                           D
I knew I could use a Bloody Mary

      A7                       D 
so I stumbled next door to the bar
[Chorus]
     D          Bm                    F#m
     And now I must confess,   I could use some rest

     G                  A7          D
     I can't run at this pace very long

              Bm                         F#m
     Yes it's quite insane,   I think it hurts my brain

             G                     A7         D
     But it cleans me out   and then I can go on
[Verse]
D                                           G             D 
There's something about this Sunday, it's a most peculiar gray

G                  D               E7         A7
Strolling down the avenue   that's known as A1A

G                           D
I was feeling tired, then I got inspired

                                  C  G  A
And I knew that it wouldn't last long

G              D                 A7     
So all alone I walked back home, sat on my beach

                        D
and then I made up this song
[Chorus]
     D          Bm                    F#m
     And now I must confess,   I could use some rest

     G                  A7          D
     I can't run at this pace very long

              Bm                         F#m
     Yes it's quite insane,   I think it hurts my brain

             G                     A7         D
     But it cleans me out   and then I can go on
[Verse]
D                                            G              D
Well, the wind is blowin' harder now,  fifty knots or there abouts

        G                 D              E7                A7  
There's white caps on the ocean, and I'm watchin' for waterspouts

     G                 D                           C  G   A
It's time to close the shutters,  it's time to go inside

     G                   D
In a week I'll be in gay Paris 

              A7                   D
Well that's a mighty long airplane ride
[Chorus]
     D          Bm                    F#m
     And now I must confess,   I could use some rest

     G                  A7          D
     I can't run at this pace very long

              Bm                         F#m
     Yes it's quite insane,   I think it hurts my brain

             G                     A7         D
     But it cleans me out   and then I can go on
