Tangerine

Shore.

 

[BlueHammer85]

Tangerine

Correct !

 

[Millo]

Shore.

My answer "shore" was technically correct also.
Immigrant Song (LedZeppilin III - 1970) contains the lyrics "shore". There was a film released in 2015 called Journey to the Shore, and shore appears in the lyrics to Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds.
