Verse 1:
F Dm
If the cliffs were any closer
D#maj7 Bb
If the water wasn't so bad
F C
I'd dive for your memory
Bb F
On the rocks and the sand
F Dm
I'd dive for you
D#maj7 Bb
Like a bird I'd descend
F C
Deep down I'm lonely
Bb F
And I miss my friend
Chorus:
F C
So when I hear you saying
F Bb
That we stood no chance
F C
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance
Verse 2:
F Dm
We stood side by side
D#maj7 Bb
Strong and true
F C
I just wish you'd remember
Bb F
Bad times don't get you through
Chorus:
F C
When I hear you saying
F Bb
That we stood no chance
F C
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance
Verse 3:
F Dm
Now I dive black waters
D#maj7 Bb
The waters of her dream
F C
Are black and forgetful
Bb F
I'd like to make them clean
Chorus:
F C
So when I hear you saying
F Bb
That we stood no chance
F C
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance
F C
So when I hear you saying
F Bb
That we stood no chance
F C
I'll dive for your memory
We stood that chance
