Biography:
Bahamas is Canadian musician Afie Jurvanen (born April 28, 1981, in Toronto).
Jurvanen isn’t from the Bahamas; he’s a Finnish-Canadian raised in Barrie (a working class town in rural Ontario). Since 2009 he’s been making music under the name Bahamas--writing songs about sunsets, love affairs, and making out with crooked smiles. Through simple arrangements, he charts an escape route from the snow belt to the coral reefs. His album, Barchords, was released in 2012 to critical praise:

[Intro]
Dm F
Dm F
[Verse 1]
Dm F
And I held the breath inside my lungs for days
Dm F
And I saw myself as one of many waves
A# Gm F Dm F
When I knew that I'd become the ocean's slave I just stayed
Dm F
And we carried forward all the water's past
Dm F
Of the waves I was not first I was not last
A# Gm F Dm D7
If we saw a boat afloat we'd take the mast, so fast
[Chorus 1]
A# F C
Where's a part of it that I miss
A# F A
At the heart of it your cold kiss
A# F C
From the start of it I know this
A#
Oh where's the part of it
[Interlude]
(chords over the solo)
Dm F
Dm F
A# Gm F Dm F
[Verse 2]
Dm F
And before too long the waves grew out of hand
Dm F
And they worked to keep the sea at their command
A# Gm F Dm D7
And the only thing they feared it seemed the sand, the dry land
[Chorus 2]
A# F C
There's a part of it that I miss
A# F A
At the heart of it your cold kiss
A# F C
From the start of it I know this
A#
Oh where's the part of it
[Interlude]
(chords over choir section)
Dm F A# Gm F A
Dm F A# Gm F A
Dm F
Dm F
[Verse 3]
Dm F
From the water there was born a bright blue roar
Dm F
As it rolled and formed and calmed the ocean's floor
A# Gm F Dm D7
And then it finally rose and broke upon the shore no more
[Chorus 3]
A# F C
There's a part of it that I miss
A# F A
At the heart of it your cold kiss
A# F C
From the start of it I know this
A#
Oh where's the part of it
A# F C
There's a part of it that I miss
A# F A
At the heart of it your cold kiss
A# F C
From the start of it I know this
A#
Oh where's the part of it
A#
Oh where's the part of it
Dm F
