C      C7   Em       G          C
A wave came swept me off of the deck
      C7  Em        G             C
Angry sea gives and takes it away
  C7      Em                 G                C         C7        Em    G
I kept on swimming, singing, searching for an island or garden to lie in
C        C7      Em      G        C        C7
The rain kept on falling on to my arms and legs
     Em             G          C
They anchored me to slate gray water
    C7        Em             G       C
The albatross around my neck made it
        C7         Em      G    C
Hard to look up to see the sky
  C7            Em   G       C    C7     Em  G    C
I dreamt of the sand of your beach where I�d come ashore
     C7   Em            G                  C    C7 Em G
Wake up a little saddle soar but make it home

  C7          Em        G    C
I was smashed somewhere in between 
        C7          Em               G            C
A murky sky and the coming tide, the coming tide
C7           Em   G                  
Everyday the same swimming, sinking, feeling 
      C     C7          Em           G        C 
We rose, my rose but we did a lot of falling
        C7        Em   G     C     C7           Em   G  C
As they pulled me from their nets, stood on the deck
C7       Em        G      C                C7       Em G  C
Arms out stretched to the horizons where I saw you
C7           Em     G         C            C7
Sailing over oceans frozen in your doorway and me
Em                  G                 C
Stumbling down your streets speaking
C7  Em       G        C     C7 Em G C
Incoherently with the night
C7                Em   G     C
I was dreaming of your white sand
C7              Em           G
unblackened by time and time again
       C C7             Em               G                C    C7 Em G
Where I could find some common ground to kiss and call my own
