Verse 1-
Cadd9 G Gsus2 Em/D
And honestly, I have been begging for answers
Dsus4 Cadd9
That you and only you can give to me
G Gsus2 Em/D
A voice crying loud I've been crying for days now
Dsus4 Cadd9
And as I start to run, I stop to breathe
(And I was nearly scared to death)
G Gsus2
And I was nearly scared to death
Em/D
(Why you left in paragraphs)
Dsus4
Why you left in paragraphs
Cadd9
(The words were nearly over us)
G Gsus2
The words were nearly over us
Em/D Dsus4
You stop and turn and grab your bags
Chorus 1-
G
And I'll be here by the ocean
Just waiting for proof that there's
Cadd9
sunsets and silhouette dreams
Gsus2 Em/D
All my sand castles fall
Gsus2 G
like the ashes of cigarettes
Cadd9 Gsus2
And every waves drags me to sea
G
I could stand here for hours
Just to ask God the question
Cadd9
"Is everyone here make-believe?"
Gsus2 Em/D
With a tear in His voice
Gsus2 G
He said, "Son, that's the question."
Cadd9
Does this deafening silence
Dsus4
mean nothing to no one but me?
Interlude- Cadd9

Verse 2- (Play the above interlude lead for the first half of the Verse 2)
Cadd9
As hours move to minutes
And minutes take longer to break
I will be desperately awaiting
But my tongue won't fall apart
And we've been sitting here for hours
All alone and in the dark
Cadd9 G Gsus2
So let me think of to word it
Em/D Dsus4
Is it too soon to say 'perfect'?
Cadd9 G Gsus2
If I could find another thirty minutes somewhere
Em/D
I'm sure everything would find me
Dsus4
All that's left is just to sing
Chorus 2-
G
And I'll be here by the ocean
Just waiting for proof that there's
Em/D
sunsets and silhouette dreams
Cadd9
All my sand castles fall
Gsus2
like the ashes of cigarettes
Dsus4 Em Gsus2
And every waves drags me to sea
G
I could stand here for hours
Just to ask God the question
Em/D
"Is everyone here make-believe?"
Cadd9
With a tear in His voice
He said, "Son, that's the question."
Dsus4
Does this deafening silence
mean nothing to no one but me?
Bridge-
Cadd9 G
And you'll sing to me sweet until then
Cadd9 G
I may never sail Virginia again
Cadd9 Dsus4
Alas this current moves slow for me
D#maj7-5 A7sus4 Cadd9
this much you must know... we'll meet again
Cadd9
And I'll, I'll have you know I'm scared to death
Cadd9
Tell me once again that you
Em/D Gsus2
will love me till the death
G
And should I die, you swear
Dsus4 Cadd9
that you will come for me
Em/D Gsus2 G Dsus4
As I fade away, you reach out your arms
Cadd9
(And please don't let me go)
Em/D Gsus2 G Dsus4 Cadd9
And please don't let me go
Cadd9
(And please don't let me go)
Em/D Gsus2 G Dsus4 Cadd9
And please don't let me go
