Wide Sargasso Sea chords by Stevie Nicks

WIDE SARGASSO SEA

 G                              F
In the beginning she was stunning and pure

 C                             Eb
When he first saw her he fainted to the floor

          G                      F
She was distant and arrogant from the start

          C                                  Eb
She did not see the fragile state of his heart

      G
She fell in love with him

          F
On that very day

        C
She became softer

 Eb
In every way

 C
Even though

 D
They were so in love

 C
They drew a line in the sand

 D
Just because

          C
They did not know each other

          D
They did not trust

      C
The only thing that they did together

 D
    Was to make love

 G                        F
So paradise found was not paradise to him

 C
Oh yes he loved her

             Eb
But he was still an Englishman


 G
Tropical birds

          F
And the heat


And the ocean
 C
Only drove him crazy

 Eb
Drove her away from him


 C
Even though

 D
They were so in love

 C
They drew a line in the sand

 D
Just because

       C
They did not know each other

       D
They did not trust

      C
The only thing that they did together

 G
She burned his house down saying

      F
You may have forgotten me

      C
But you’ll remember this

      Eb
You fell to the ground when you saw this

 G                  F
My face my eyes my lips

   C
You may have forgotten me

              Eb
But you’ll never forget this kiss


 C
Even though

 D
They were so in love

 C
They drew a line in the sand

    Was to make love


BREAK:  G F G F with slide guitar

  G
When that big house burned down all around her

 F
In the smoke and the fire

           C                            Eb
In the devastation they never found her

           G
She went back into her red dress

 F
Back to her white house

     C
To her ocean

             Eb
And after that no words were spoken

   G
About the two of them

     F         C    Eb
Ever again


 C
Even though

 D
They were so in love

 C
They drew a line in the sand

 D
Just because

        C
They did not know each other

       D
They did not trust

       C
The only thing that they did together

 D
    Was to make love

THEN : G  F  C  Eb - OVER AND OVER UNTIL THE END OF THE SONG.

In the beginning
She was stunning and pure
In the smoke and the fire
Well they never found her
She went back into the ocean
Back to her white house
For a while they were so in love
For a while they were so in love
She burned his house down

NO GUITAR FROM THIS POINT ON UNTIL THE END…
My face
My eyes
My lips

You may have forgotten that

You may have forgotten that

You may have forgotten that

But you’ll never forget that
kiss
