Vice Verses by Switchfoot
Vice Verses
A
Walking alone the high tide line
D
Watching the pacific from the sidelines
G#
Wonder what it means to live together
D
Looking for more than just guidelines
A
Looking for signs in the night sky
D
wishing that I wasn't such a nice guy
G#
wonder what it means to live together
D A
wonder what it means to die
A
I know that there's a meaning to it all
D
A little resurrection every time I fall
D G#
You got your babies, I got my hearses
D
Every blessing comes with a set of curses
A D A D
I got my vices, I got my vice verses
D A D
These are my vice verses
A
The wind could be my new depression
D
The wind could be my newest expression
G#
The wind goes anywhere it wants to
D
Wishing that I learned my lesson
A
The ocean sounds like a garage band
D
Coming at me like a drunk man
G#
The ocean tells me a thousand stories
D
None of them are lies
D A G#
Let the pacific laugh
D A G#
Be on my epitaph
D A
With its rising and falling
D G#
And after all, its just water
D
And I am just soul
G# D
With a body of water and bones
D A
Water and bones
A
Where is God in the night sky?
D
Where is God in the city light?
G#
Where is God in the earthquake?
D
Where is God in the genocide?
A
Where are You in the broken heart?
D
Everything seems to fall apart
G#
Everything feels rusted over
D
Tell me that You're there

Drop D tuning
I figured this out from this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGGZ2QsGYak&feature=related
This should be pretty accurate, since I spent a very long time on it. it's hard to get
picking, so I would recommend watching the video for picking pattern, hand positions, etc....

The wind could be my new obsession

The ocean telling me a thousand stories
None of them are lies
