Artist - Vance Joy Song - Riptide Tab by - David Ehlert I know there are a ton of Riptide tabs but it didn't look like anyone nailed down the solo yet so here it is. It's pretty simple, I put the whole song in here too, so you can get it all in one place. All comments, corrections and suggestions are welcome. Thanks Obfried Vance plays this with a KALA TENOR Ukulele tuned like a Baritone uke dGBE

VANCE JOY - RIPTIDE Am G C (2x)
Am              G                C
I was scared of dentists and the dark,

Am              G                C
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations,

   Am     G                   C
Oh all my friends are turning green,

           Am            G              C
You're the magicians assistant in their dreams.

Am      G       C
Oooooh, oooooh, oooooh

Am   
Oooooh, and they come unstuck
[Chorus]
Am    G                   C
Lady, running down to the riptide,

C                 Am
taken away to the dark side,

G               C
I wanna be your left hand man.

  Am       G                        C
I love you when you're singing that song and,

I got a lump in my throat 'cause

G                     C
you're gonna sing the words wrong

Am                 G                   C
There's this movie that I think you'll like,

     Am             G                C
this guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City,

     Am       G               C
this cowboy's running from himself.

    Am                G              C
And she's been living on the highest shelf

Am      G       C
Oooooh, oooooh, oooooh

Am   
Oooooh, and they come unstuck
[Chorus]
Am    G                   C
