G                   C                 G              D  
In the morning, when I wake up, I look out at the bay  
G                      C                G              D  
And I see the sun, shining down, on Corpus Christi Bay  
G                C              G                D  
The fishermen are out there, casting nets for their pay  
G                     C                G              D  
And I feel that easy feeling, in Corpus Christi Bay  

G                  C                G                D  
Now the tide is rolling in, and the seagulls start to play  
G                   C                  G              D  
And I feel the warmth, of the sun, on Corpus Christi Bay  
G                 C                G                D  
With my friends I’ll spend my time, in laughter and in sway  
G                     C                G              D  
And I thank the Lord, for the blessings, of Corpus Christi Bay  

G                     C                G                  D  
So here’s to the water, and the sky, and the breezes that blow  
G                  C                    G                 D  
To the sunsets and the moonlight, that puts on such a show  
G                  C                G                  D  
With a song in my heart, and a smile on my face  
G                  C                   G                D  
I’ll be living my life, in this beautiful place
