Dm

[Verse 1]
Dm
The summer is here
And the red tide's near
The day breaks brown
But when the sun goes down
The faces shine bright
Through the whole night
Her glow hypnotizes
As the sea drops and rises

[Chorus]
F       G                            Dm
Red tide come alive in the night red tide
           Am Dm
Come alive tonight

[Verse 2]
Dm
I kick the crystals in to the sky
I don't stop to ask you why
Red tide, friend of the moon
You come suddenly and leave too soon

[Chorus]
F       G                            Dm
Red tide come alive in the night red tide
           Am  Dm
Come alive moonlight

[Verse 3]
Dm
I was beckoned from the western shore
I couldn't hold my spirit anymore
No legend could scare me still
I give in let go and drift
Am
First glance and you drew me near
G
To the sand with the distant fear
Am
A midnight flash it doesn't last
F                 G               C
 I have to wait until the seasons pass....

[Verse 4]
Dm
I was beckoned from the western shore
I couldn't hold my spirit anymore
No legend could scare me still
I give in let go and drift

[Chorus]
F       G                            Dm
Red tide come alive in the night red tide
  Am  Dm      Am  Dm   Am  Dm
Come alive, red tide, moonlight
