Verse 1
C C I packed up my truck an' everything I owned: F F I said my goodbye's and threw away my 'phone, C Am G G I didn't know where I was goin', so, I just drove. C C South of Miami, down through the Keys, F F road fin'lly ended when I hit the sea. C Am G G Sent a postcard home sayin': "Don't y'all worry 'bout me."
Chorus
C C F F I'm just holding back the ocean, makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin'. G F C G Watchin' over the stars at night 'till the sun shines bright in the morning. C C F F I ain't worried 'bout a damn thing, keep your gold watches and your brass rings. Dm G C C I'm tired of goin' through the motions: I'm just holding back the ocean.

Verse 2
C C String bikinis an' long blonde hair, F F an' you can taste the salt in the air. C Am G G People laughin' and actin' like they don't have a prayer. C C It's twenty-four seven at my new occupation. F F Don't even earn a dime but I wouldn't trade it: C Am G G I'm workin' overtime on this permanent vacation.
Chorus
C C F F I'm just holding back the ocean, makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin'. G F C G Watchin' over the stars at night 'till the sun shines bright in the morning. C C F F I ain't worried 'bout a damn thing, keep your gold watches and your brass rings. Dm G C C I'm tired of goin' through the motions: I'm just holding back the ocean.

End-Chorus
C C F F I'm just holding back the ocean, makin' sure the breeze keeps blowin'. G F C G Watchin' over the stars at night 'till the sun shines bright in the morning. C C F F I ain't worried 'bout a damn thing, keep your gold watches and your brass rings. Dm G C C I'm tired of goin' through the motions: I'm just holding back the ocean. Dm C/E F I'm tired of goin' through the motions: G F F C C I'm just holding back the ocean.
