Introduction:
Bm A
June was the lobster shell
Bm
I dug by hand
G
A haven that hid me well
A
Beneath the sand
Bm A
The white windy waves washed in
Bm
But I stayed dry
The great breakers broke again
G D A
'Cause I'm on and off inside
G Bm A
And then, when the empress run aground
D/F# G
And my eyes turned blue and green
Bm A
I heard a gorgeous sound
D G
And that's when it became a dream
Bm A
When the sky fell in
D/F# G
When the hurricanes came for me
Bm A
I could finally crash again
D Bm G Bm G A
And that's how I became the sea
I wrenched the engines off

And then, when the empress run aground
D/F# G
And my eyes turned blue and green
Bm A
I heard a gorgeous sound
D G

I could finally crash again

And that's how I became the sea
