lyrics

Riptide – Written & Composed by Heather Inwood-Montrose
August 2005

Standard Tuning

D E D E
Your love is like a carrot dangled
D E D E
Or a chocolate denied
D E D E
The sense of anticipation that carries
D E D E
Like an echo an echo oh
D A D A
Your love is like the riptide
D A D A
It lulls, and lulls and then
D E D E
Sucks you in
D E D E
Leaving you breathless, and floundering and floundering oh

CHORUS
F A
I’m drawn in by your promises your promises of
D E
Possibility
F A D E
I should have known by now what seems clear never is
F A
I know you care, but that a double edged sword you wield so
D E D A
Carelessly
F A
It’s just a nick, but enough of them enough of them will
D E D E D E D E
Scar

So riptide what distant shore are you tossing me up on, up on
Will there be
Just enough of that, sweet stuff
To keep me
Coming back for more and more and more

First in are my toes then
Fast up to my nose and
Tingling scalp, cool head
I’m drowing set me free
Oh let me be

CHORUS

First in are my toes then
Fast up to my nose and
Set me free
