Em D Em C (2x)
Bm D Bm D
C Em C D
Bm
Camerons getting logical
D
A vulcan in disguise
Bm
The mysteries of the night
D
Are putting sparkles in his eyes
C
He's looking for sound reasoning but the
Em
best that I can do, is this
C
transcendental story that I'll
D
pass along to you
Bm
Past the falls they call Victoria
D
down the river named the Nile
Bm
Drifts a tiny little hand made boat
D
it'shaped just like a smile
C
And, steered by a magician,
Em
with the knowledge that he needs
C
To keep him on his destined course past
Em D A
the crocodiles and ree--eeds
Em
He's the Admiral of the ocean
C
the lone eagle in the sky
D
He gave me my first sextant
Em
and he taught me how to fly
Bm
It's been quite a lengthy passage
D
from the dawn of time 'till now
Bm
He has weathered the infernal storms
D
in his trusty petite dow
C
He has soared above colossal waves,
Em
and sailed the endless sea
C
Sometimes he resembles you
Em D A
sometimes he looks like me--ee
Em
I saw him through my telescope
C
on cloudless night in June, as he
D
rested between voyages at his

Beach House On The Moon
Bm
There are windows to the galaxies and
D
hallways to the past
Bm
There are trapdoors to the future
D
and a splintered ancient mast
C
There are relics from Apollo trips,
Em
when the earthmen came to play
C
And, a hammock from a distant star out
Em D A
in the Milky Way-ay
Em
He's the Admiral of the ocean the lone
C
eagle in the sky
D
He gave me my first sextant and he
Em
taught me how to fly
Em
I saw him through my telescope on
C
cloudless night in June
D
As he rested between voyages at his
Em
Beach House On The Moon
Bm
A stripped bass breaks the surface
D
As the sunset fades away
Bm
And, our journey from the sea of storms
D
takes us home beside the bay
C
We go fishing in the ocean,
Em
we go traveling back in time
C
Like the song says "teach your children"
D
to go fishing with their minds
Bm D
Cameron's contemplating I'm not
D
sure just what he thinks
Bm
Is my dad some kind of lunatic with
D
his stories and hi-jinks
C
Then he says when I get old and grey
Em
and feel like I'm marooned
C
He'll take me in his rocket ship to the
