[Verse 1]
G               C              G                D
A seagull cry a child laughs an old man orders a drink
G                        C             G               D
It's been ten years since he got here and it hurts to think
G                         C             G              D
That years ago at this beachside bar a woman held his hand
G                           C                D             G
And he lost his chance for true romance on South Padre Island

Well the woman's name was Mary Ann and Gary loved her so
G                           C                     D         G
He said be my wife for the rest of your life and she said no
G                         C                G                 D
Well old Gary he was from Indiana all his life a travellin' man
G                          C                    D                  G
He had a dog and a boat and he would float and fish around that old island

[Chorus]
G                               C              G                    D
He's stuck at Wanna Wanna the beachfront bar sippin' on a coke and rum
G                       C               G           D            G
The tide rolls in his dreams die out waitin' on a love that won't come
G          D          G
True love never will come

Years ago in California Gary loved a girl named Sue
G                         C               D              G
She and three more wives told him lies when they said I do
G                        C                G                 D
And this last one took the money and the things Cary cared about
G                                 C                 D               G
She took the dog and the boat now he can't float cause she walked out

[Chorus]
G                               C              G                    D

G                       C               G           D            G
The tide rolls in his dreams die out waitin' on a love that won't come

True love never will come

Gary looks out at the Gulf and he squints his eyes
G                      C                   D                G
Thinkin' again of what might have been without them hard goodbyes
G                        C              G                    D
But Gary's got lots of stories about people and places he's been
G                              C                  D           G
'Yeah I've had a few of them good times too' he said with a grin

[Chorus]
     G                               C              G                    D
