	Here are the chords to this song:

F           A              Bb       G7  Bb—A—G7—F
Ceased to resist, given my goodbyes
F        A            Bb    G7    Bb—A—G7—F
Drove my car into the ocean
F	      A               Bb    G7
You think I'm dead but I sail away
     F       A    Bb    F       A    Bb    F       A    Bb
On a wave of mutilation wave of mutilation wave of mutilation
F    Bb
Wave
F    Bb
Wave

If you're playing the U.K. Surf Mix, turn to a mellow reverby setting and play
all the chords.  On the _Doolittle_ version, the chords during the verse are
not played;  get a bass—playin' friend to play just the roots of the chords,
or have another guitarist fake it on the bottom strings.  [NOTE:  I'm just
talking about the chords that go on while Francis is singing—— the four—chord
runs at the end of each line of the verse should always be played.  If you've
heard the song you know what I'm talking about.]

The verse chords should all be played in an E—barre shape.  For the chorus,
play the F as before, but play the A open and the Bb as an A barred up one
fret.

I'll post the little opening line of this when I can get home and figure it
out, plus the rest of the words, plus some more songs from "Doolittle".
