Intro: C# B F#
C# G#m A#m
C# B F#
C# G#m
Lie with me now
A#m
Under lemon tree skies
C# B
Show me the shy, slow smile you keep hidden by warm brown eyes
F#
Catch the sweet hover of lips just barely apart
C# G#m
And wonder at loves sweet ache
A#m
And the wild beat of my heart
C# B F#
Oh, rhapsody tearing me apart
C# G#m
And I dreamed I was saying goodbye to my child
A#m C#
She was taking a last look at the sea
B
Wading through dreams, up to our knees in warm ocean swells
While bathing belles, soft beneath
F#
Hard bitten shells punch their iPhones
Erasing the numbers of radon done lovers
C#
And search the horizon
G#m
And you'll find my child
Down by the shore
A#m
Digging a mound for a chain or a bone
C# B (melodia)
Searching the sand for a relic washed up by the sea
F#
The last refugee
