"The Sea"
Corinne Bailey Rae
[C]I never [G/B]knew you were st[Am]anding on the shore,
It says [Dm7]everything,
Explains [G7]everything.
[C]Then from then [G/B]on it couldn't [Am]be just like [C7]before,
it says[Dm7] everything,
Changes[G7] everything.
So don't you [Dm7]stand there wishing your life would fade a[G7]way
And don't you go around with [Dm7]anyone who makes you feel a[G7]shamed.
(Chorus)
[C]Goodbye [G/B]paradise,
[G]I hope there's something you could [F]try
[C]Goodbye you're so [G/B]changed that you'd [C7]give it all a[F]way[(E)]
Dm Bb C--->verse 2
Goodbye, Goodbye
(Verse 2)
[C] [G/B] I saw your f[Am]ace in the faded light,
[Dm7]Said everything,
Explained [G7]everything.
[C]It haunts all your [G/B]days and it c[Am]omes to you at n[C7]ight,
[Dm7]You did everything,
Blame a[G7]nything.
But don't you [Dm7]cut those ribbons to take away the p[G7]ain
And don't you go round with that [Dm7]same old crowd,
They make you feel a[G7]shamed
(Chorus)
[C]Goodbye [G/B]paradise,
[G]I hope there's something you could [F]try
[C]Goodbye you're so [G/B]changed that you'd [C7]give it all a[F]way[(E)]
Dm Bb C--->Instrumental
Goodbye, Goodbye Paradise
Instrumental:
C Bb (4x)
[Dm]The sea,
[G]The majestic sea,
[Dm]Breaks everything,
[G]Crushes everything
[Dm]Cleans everything,
[G]Takes everything
[C] [Em] [F] [C]
[C] [G/B] [G] [Am] [Dm7] [G7] [C7] [F] [Bb]
