I  Am know it's out of fashion,  D and a  C trifle  Am uncool,      D        Em
But  Am I can't help it,  D I'm a  C romantic  Am fool.       D        Em
It's a  Am habit of mine  D to watch the  C sun go   Am down.      D        Em
On  Am Echo Beach,  D I watch the   C sun go  Am down.      D        Em
From  G 9 to five I have to spend my  D time at work.
My  G job is very boring I'm an  D office clerk.
The  Am only thing that helps me pass the  Em time away
Is  Am knowing I'll be back in Echo  Em Beach some day.

#Play intro riff
On  Am silent summer evenings,  D the sky's  C alive with  Am light.      D        Em
A  Am building in the distance -  D surreal C istic  Am sight.      D        Em
On  Am Echo Beach,  D waves make the  C only  Am sound.      D        Em
On  Am Echo Beach,  D there's not a  C soul a Am round.      D        Em

#Repeat this ad nauseum!
Am Echo Beach  G far away in time,  Em Echo Beach  F far away  G in time
