G                  D

G            D            Bm

Verse 2:
G                D     Bm       
So irrigate your heart until you
             C-Cmaj7  
 know you're complete
C-Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7

G                   D    Bm     
And your draped in kelp, below 
        C-Cmaj7  C-Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7
by 8,000 feet
Continues after the ad
G                  D             
"My soul," she cried, "I thought 
      Bm                
you'd died amid fumes of 
 C-Cmaj7  C-Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7
formaldehyde"
G             D           Bm    
You have been gone for so long.

I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide

Interlude:
C                          D
When this corpus christic isle 
            G            Em
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                             
Until the devil screamed in the 
    D
evermore
G                    Em
In envy of the grace we saw
G
The sound… (Chorus starts here 
making the rest of the Interlude 
lyrics unintelligible)

Chorus:
C                   D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G                                 
The song, the spray, the gorgeous 
Em
undertow
C                         D
Always, always, always the sea
G                Em
Brilliantine mortality
C                   D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G                                 
The song, the spray, the gorgeous 
Em
undertow
C                         D
Always, always, always the sea
G         (Guitar stops)
Brilliantine mortality

Note: There is a quick chord from 
Guitar I after the first and third 
lines of the
I don't know what it is. Also, The 
lyrics of the interlude are hard to 
distinguish, so those
my approximations. Enjoy.
