[INTRO]
Cm/Eb Cmadd9/D Cm
[VERSE 1]
Cm Cm/B Fm
The sea, the sea, I can see the sea
G7 Gsus4 G7
Shining from your eyes as he
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Haunts every fathom he can reach
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Hauling the pebbles from your beach
[VERSE 2]
Cm Cm/B Fm
The sea, the sea, whispers tauntingly
G7 Gsus4 G7
Come on in to the hell of me
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Swarming like an army through the world
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Spewing up the rocks that we once hurled
[VERSE 3]
Cm Cm/B Fm
Into the sea, invading so gent--ly
G7 Gsus4 G7
Filling us with grief and loss
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Squeezing our skins until we shrink
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Lost in the desert of the drink
[BRIDGE]
Ab/Eb Fm
I love the sea but the sea don’t love nobody
(Fm) Cm/Eb Bb/D Cm Bb Ab G7
It just swallows every swimmer it can see
[VERSE 4]
Cm Cm/B Fm
The sea, the sea, it will always be
G7 Gsus4 G7
Dreaming of the death of me
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Swelling like a flower in my heart
Fm Fm/Eb Bb
Slowly tearing evidence of shipwrecks apart
Ab Cm
I love the sea
