A D Em D Dsus4 Em Em7 Asus4 D Dadd9 Dsus4 Em Em7 A Asus4


 	 D
The sun's dropping out of the picture 
A
Soon be time to move

It hasn't been a real big day,
    G                       D          
But I don't have a thing to prove
                              
I've still got the old nose rider
  A
I still surf old style
    
I'll go out beyond the breakers
G                     D    Bm7  G
Sit alone and rest a while

Chorus:
        D          A Aadd9 A
There's nothing that I wanna do
   G                   A
No place I'm trying to reach
Asus4 D                G
Only time is now more precious to
     A6     C#m          G     Dsus4 G Gadd9 G
The oldest surfer on the beach
     Aadd9  C#m          D        
The oldest surfer on the beach

Dadd9 Em Em7 A/C# A Asus4 D Asus4

  D
I stopped searching for perfection 
A
Many waves ago

What really matters is the here and now
     G                 D   
And that's about all I know

Gonna catch me a big 'ole roller,
 A
Sun settin' on the sea

Riding in on her glassy shoulder
    G                     D    G  Bm7 G
The water going grey like me 

  
Chorus:

G       D            A Aadd9 A
There's nothing that I wanna do
   G      D6            A
No place I'm trying to reach
Asus4 D                G
Only time is now more precious to
     A6     C#m          G     Dsus4 G Gadd9 G
The oldest surfer on the beach
     A6     C#m          G     
The oldest surfer on the beach
