Intro: Bm A G Gb Em Gb G (work out the timing)
Bm A G Gb
I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
Em Gb G
At all of the lives that I never have led
Bm A G Gb
There's one where I stayed with you across the sea
Em Gb G
I wonder do you still think of me
Bm A G Gb
I carry your image always in my head
Em Gb G
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
Bm A G Gb
And I've looked upon it for so many years
Em Gb G
Slowly I am losing your face
Chorus
Bm D A E Bm
Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
D A E
The ocean rolls us away
Six's and seven's we live on jet planes
So many faces I don't know the names
So many friends now and none of them mine
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
Your caught in my head like a thorn on a vine
To forever torment me and I wonder why
Do I wish I'd never known you at all
Chorus x2
Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
The ocean rolls us away
(Play verse chords, and then)
Bm A G Gb
The sun and the moon, An ocean of air
Em Gb G
So many voices, But nothing is there
Bm A G Em G
The ghost of you asking me why, Why did I leave?
Chorus
Oh the ocean rolls us away, away, away
And I lose your hand through the waves
Song ends on an E chord. Enjoy!
