Tom: G
Introdução:
G D Bm C
Under the brine, you won't notice the dark
G D Bm C
Can stone and steel, and horses' heels ever explain the way you feel
G D Bm C
From Scapa Flow to Rotherhithe, I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide
C D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G Em
The song, the spray, the gorgeous undertow
C D
Always, always, always the sea
G Em
Brilliantine mortality
Main Riff (Repeat first phrase only twice)
G D Bm C
So irrigate your heart until you know you're complete
G D Bm C
And your draped in kelp, below by 8,000 feet
G D Bm C
"My soul," she cried, "I thought you'd died amid fumes of formaldehyde"
G D Bm C
You have been gone for so long. I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide
G D Bm C
My love, I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide!
Chorus
C D G Em
When this corpus christic isle became a landed ocean blue
C D
Again she cried, "You turned my eye"
G Em
At mentions of "no matter why"
(First phrase of Main Riff repeated for the rest of Interlude and First Chorus)
C D
And in the end an August sun
G Em
Of one by one it blew
C D
Until the devil screamed in the evermore
G Em
In envy of the grace we saw
G
The sound… (Chorus starts here making the rest of the Interlude lyrics unintelligible)
C D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G Em
The song, the spray, the gorgeous undertow
C D
Always, always, always the sea
G Em
Brilliantine mortality
C D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G Em
The song, the spray, the gorgeous undertow
C D
Always, always, always the sea
G
Brilliantine mortality
Main Riff
