Verse 1:
Am                             D
Once I felt the embrace of the sea
F         Gsus4 - G
Loved me, held    me
A                          Dm
Once I felt so despised by eternity
     C
Fall upon me...
     G
It's upon me...

    F              Am
The waves are high above me
             C
This'd be my home
            G
Deep in the sea
   F                  Am
Oh pain, float like a flower
            C              G
The darkest sea refusing me...

Am                        D
Music of the seven gentle tides
F        Gsus4 - G
Fade, in distance
A                                 Dm
Darkness was a friend, leaden the candle light
        C            G
Slowly healing for a fortnight

I'm alive...

Chorus:
F
Memories;
  C       Am     G
I used to have a home in the light
        Dm        C              F
But the meaning's still escaping me
        F       C    Am        G
All the joy was gone along the barque, with the name...
Dm                 C            F    G
There's a face, my story in the deep dark sea...

(key change)
      D
Memories,
   A       F#m    E
he used to have a home in the light
            Bm       A         D
The life he can't remember anymore
D              A       F#m    E
Every night he sees the white barque in a dream
      Bm         A              D  E  Am
Every night adds colours to the me-mo-ry... (fades into verse 2)

Verse 2:
Am                             D
Guiding star above the shallow sea
    F        Gsus G
The grave of ang--els
A                               Dm
Beacon for the ones who need to seize the night
        C
For the last time, all onboard the
      D5
White Pearl...

All onboard for the very last time
           G  D               F#m
Close your ey-es, oh calamity
     C#m   A                       F#m
Feel their pain for the very first time
C#m E  A      E      F#m
See my-self in a dream
D     /C#   E    C#m     F#m   /E       B/Eb
There was a lady who was saved from the ocean
D     C#             E        F#m
  With-out a name to tell, afraid to stay
                             D
She left, the leaves were umber
/C#   E   C#             F#m     /E       B/Eb
 My only hope, she's the one I have dreamt of

 Follow my feelings, in her wake

F#m  B  D E

Bridge pt 2:
Bm
I've become a true blight
  E
I huddle in the daylight
G
Banished by my townsmen
     A
With blood in my hands
Bm
Gallop across the moorlands
     E
On a branded steed I'd stolen
G
Building my own gallows
      A
Grave shallowed for a thief

Solo:
Dm G A# C x2
Am D F G

Bridge pt 3:
       Bm  G                     Em
Across the isle with the horse I ride
      D  G  D      E        F#m
Close my ey-es, oh calamity
     Em   A                       F#m
Feel this pain for the very first time
  C#m     A  E          F$m
I see her ey-es, like a dream
D /C#   E        C#m     F#m   /E       B/Eb
I found the lady who was saved from the ocean
D     C#            E        F#m
 With-out a name to tell, afraid to stay
                          D
She left, the leaves were umber
/C# E       C#m          F#m   /E         B/Eb
I   wonder, if she's the one I had dreamt of...

 Feelings get stronger in her wake

We left, in rain and thunder
/C# E      C#m      F#m         /E     B/Eb
 We ponder, if our dreams we're all handed
D           C#m  E         F#m
Only by the gra--ce of the sea

Chorus:
    D
Memories,
  A       F#m    E
I used to have a home in The Light
       Bm       A               D
Now we keep the far-side of the sea
        D      A              E
And the joy we knew is still alive, trees so green
      Bm        A              D     E   D     A  F#m E  Bm A D A E Bm A D
A New Face, The Beauty and the brand new me...

Outro:
    Am                        D     F  Gsus-G
The music of my chosen gentle tide...
A                          Dm
Turned into a story on the other side
       C         G
A lone note in a lone vial
        F      Am C G
"We are alive"

F Am C G x3
