[Verse 1]
Am C Am Am D Am
The ship's rising up from the sea to the sky, cryin' heyeheh Hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
Just one sorry scream and a desperate cry, cryin' heyeheh Hold on
Am C Am Am D Am D Am D C G
Their lives pass before them before they die, heyeheh heyeheyeh heyeheyeh --
[Verse 2]
Am C Am Am D Am
The sea yawns around like a boiling hell, cryin' heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
And souls disappear with the toll of that bell, cryin' heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
The arms of the sea they are dragging them down, heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am D Am D
And sorrows and sins they are lost as they drown, heyeheh heyeheyeh heyeheyeh --
[Interlude]
D Am
How strange when you think that the sea was their way;
G F#m
And a meaningless death is the price they pay
Bm G D Am
For their living was made from the deep
C Bm Am
To their people in comfort and keep
D G Am
Keep all their people and places there
G Em F#m Bm Em Am Em Am
Never to be seen again, never to be loved and their last embrace --
G D Em
And the kiss has a salt bitter taste
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Am C Am Am D Am
Now all that remains is the deep cruel sea, heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
And wreckage of things that used to be, heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
No stone marks the place of that watery grave, cryin' heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
Together they die both the weak and the brave, cryin' heyeheh hold on
[Verse 4]
Am C Am Am D Am
The arms of the sea they are dragging them down, heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
And sorrows and sins they are lost as they drown, heyeheh hold on
Am C Am Am D Am
The sea yawns around like a boiling hell, cryin' heyeheh hold on
