E5
How could he know this new dawn's light
D5 B5
Would change his life forever
E5
Set sail to sea but pulled off course
D5 B5
By the light of golden treasure
E5
Was he the one causing pain
D5 B5
With his careless dreaming
E5
Been afraid, always afraid
D5 B5
Of the things he's feeling
E5 C5 D5 G5 E5
He could just be gone
E5 C5 D5 G5 E5
He would just sail on
E5
He would just sail on
 
Chorus:
Em C
How can I be lost
B Em
If I've got nowhere to go
C
Searched the seas of gold
B Em
How come it's got so cold
C
How can I be lost
B Em
In remembrance I relive
C
How can I blame you
B Em
When it's me I can't forgive
 
E5
These days drift on inside a fog
D5 B5
It's thick and suffocating
E5
This seeking life outside its hell
D5 B5
Inside intoxicating
E5
He's run aground, Like his life
D5 B5
Water's much too shallow
E5
Slipping fast, down with the ship
D5 B5
Fading in the shadows
E5 C5 D5 G5 E5
Now a castaway
E5 C5 D5 G5 E5
They've all gone away
E5
They've gone away
 
Chorus:
Em C
How can I be lost
B Em
If I've got nowhere to go
C
Searched the seas of gold
B Em
How come it's got so cold
C
How can I be lost
B Em
In remembrance I relive
C
How can I blame you
B Em
When it's me I can't forgive
