N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
We were playing in the sand
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
And you found a little band
N.C. C#
You told me you fell in love with it
C#m
Hadn't gone as I'd planned
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
When you had to bid adieu
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
Said you'd never love anew

I wondered if I could hold it and

Fall in love with it too

You told me to buy a pony,
C#m
but all I wanted was you

[Verso 2]
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
You looked quite devine that night
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
There among those vibrant lights
N.C. C#
I wonder if you'd be here if I
C#m
Could've treated you right
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
Or the crashing of the waves
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
Begged you on my knees to stay
N.C. C#
I must have been drowned out cause
C#m
I looked back and you'd walked away
N.C. C#
And now ever since that day
C#m
My life's fallen to disarray
[Ponte]
N.C. C7
In the moonlight by the sea
N.C. Fm
Our hearts in time and harmony
Bb7
He walks along the shore
Eb7
To an aerial symphony
N.C. C7
That was oh so long ago
Fm
But I still love you so
Bb7
I know it's so unhealthy
Eb7
but I just can't let you go
[Verso 3]
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
On the whisper of the breeze
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
Float those ancient memories
N.C.
Telling of a
C#
Life we could've shared
C#m
Where I'd smile with ease
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
We were playing in the sand
N.C. G#6 G6 G#6
And you found a little band
N.C. C#
If you told me how to change it I
C#m
Would never understand
N.C.
Now tales of our
C#
Long-Lost love are
C#m
Somewhere hidden in the sand
{Instrumental}
