Daughters Of The Northern Coast

Em    D                G     D
Ain't nothing like the windy city
Em        D             G      D
Where the station-wagon died
Em        D             G       D
Where the wild dogs meet the fences
Em      D                G    D
And the horsemen, fences ride
Em        D                G         D
Where the flatlands become flatlands
Em      D           G    D
And the caravans collide
Em       D                  G     D
I'm just sitting 'neath the mango
Em        D    G D
Running a tide


[Verse 2]

Em     D         G        D
Took a ride on a bin-train
Em D       G    D
50 cars or more
Em           D              G      D
They say the heads are just insane
Em           D        G     D
But it's too risky to score
Em             D         G      D
Sittin' on the lawn with Andrea
Em           D            G   D
Draggin' the line for big red
Em             D             G      D
Everyone looks better with a suntan
Em        D            G   D
Easier to get you into bed


[Chorus]

Em D G           D             Em D G D
Daughters of the northern coast
Em      D    G         D           Em
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post
             D         G     D
You know the post is a ghost


[Verse 3]

Em              D             G      D
Lee Marlin went lookin' for a marvin
              Em            D           G   D
While we were looking for a line at the pub
         Em        D           G        D
Hey, and still the black man's starvin'
   Em       D            G   D
No wonder nobody wants a job
Em         D    G         D
Helicopter over homestead
Em               D               G     D
Stirring all the young blades at night
        Em           D            G             D
They're steppin' out there in the sultry summer evening
      Em          D
Their pistols all packed
          G         D
And their badges so bright


[Chorus]

Em D G           D             Em D G D
Daughters of the northern coast
Em      D    G         D           Em
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post
             D         G     D
You know the post is a ghost

[Verse 4]

Em     D         G        D
Took a ride on a bin-train
Em D       G    D
50 cars or more
Em           D              G      D
They say the heads are just insane
Em           D        G     D
But it's too risky to score
Em            D           G          D
Andrea's been giving me a towel down
Em            D          G     D
Standing on a palm beach shore
Em          D                  G          D
If 'n'those girls keep a doin' that thing
Em               D
I can't wait for next year
          G             D
I'm gonna come back for more
