CTurn the lights out, in the light house,

I saw you coming,

AmFelt the ship wreck

Saw the wreckage, I heard you yelling,

FJust a mess when I saw your reflection in the sand,

CWondering where you were washed up,

Or I ran to the water, Mmmmm,

FI can put my hands down in it,

CBut I won't bring nothing up,

AmSitting on the shore all day, wGaiting on the tide to come

 But you cCan't hold on to watAmer

 It fills you up but never sGtays

 It's only good to wash Faway today

 and your Cloving me like waAmter

 Your slippin' through my fingersG such

 A natural disasterF love

 Bringing on theC flood, the floAmod

 Love me like a Gflood, a floodF

Bring it on

CStay tonight out, by the beach house, it's all so quiet

AmLit a candle candle, by the window, so you might find it

FHope you know you'll always have a place to call your home

Rising and the falling of my tears that fill the ocean,
