The Who - Sea And Sand: chords

Asus2
Here by the sea and sand
Nothing ever goes as planned,
                 D             E
I just couldn't face going home
                A
It was just a drag on my own.
     Asus2
They finally threw me out
My mother got drunk on stout,
                  D              E
My dad couldn't stand on two feet,
                 A
As he lectured about morality.
                 D               E
Now I guess the families complete,
                 G              D
With me hanging round on the street
                A
Or here on the beach.

C          Esus4
The girl I love
Asus4
Is a perfect dresser,
Fmaj         Em
Wears every fashion
         D
Gets it to the tee.
C        Esus4
Heavens above,
Asus2
I got to match her
    Fmaj
She knows just how
     Em               D
She wants her man to be
Leave it to me.

G D A
My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked
G D      A
Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck
G D      A
I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat
G D        A
I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet.

I see her dancing
Across the ballroom
UV light making starshine
Of her smile.
I am the face,
She has to know me,
I'm dressed up better than anyone
Within a mile.

So how come the other tickets look much better?
Without a penny to spend they dress to the letter.
How come the girls come on oh so cool
Yet when you meet 'em, every one's a fool?

Come sleep on the beach
Keep within my reach
I just want to die with you here
I'm feeling so high with you here
I'm wet and I'm cold
But thank God I ain't old
Why didn't I say what I mean?
I should have split home at fifteen
There's a story that the grass is so green
What did I see? Where have I been?

 G           D                          A
Nothing is planned, by the sea and the sand
