Capo: 3rd fret
[Intro]
C Em F G
(x2)
[Chorus]
C Em
Your life is the ocean
C F
and your heart is a wave
C Em
like a dog in the sun
F C
I found my peace in your storm
C Em
as i sail for days
F C
I keep drowning away
C Em
would my sailors forgive me
F G
for feeling this way
[Verse 1]
C
You said,
Em
"Hey Mister!"
F C
do follow through
C Am
let's go and build a house
F G
big enough to fit us two
C Em
we'll weave a castle there
F G
the castle of our dreams
C Em
my knight in dining armor
F G
and i your blanket queen
[Verse 2]
C Em
Girl you're just like that pretty house
F C
with wooden beams, you're facing south
G C Em F
you are my shelter, you are my little home
C Em
Your walls are painted pink and green
F G
with a hint of Tangerine
C Em
I see
F G
a crack in the window
C Em Am
I'm waking up to hold you
F G
your blemishes,all your tragedies are mine. [Strum DUDUD]
[Chorus]
C Em
Your life is the ocean
C F
and your heart is a wave
C Em
like a dog in the sun
F C
I found my peace in your storm
C Em
as i sail for days
F C
I keep drowning away
C Em
would my sailors forgive me
F G
for feeling this way
[Verse 3]
F Dm C
As days turn into years
Em Am
got more than I deserved
F C
there's so much left to learn
G
as i flip through your pages
F Dm C
As sweet as Crème brûlée (harmony)
Em Am
these memories we've made
Fadd9 C
now let me take your hand
G
and offer a lifetime (clash and tension)
[Verse 4]
C Em
Coz darling all these years have gone
F C
Just as the tree we sat upon
C Em F G
so afraid to fall, the way we laughed, we made it through
C Em
My sailors they have come 'round
F C
their ballads bring a different sound
C Em F
i guess they all have drowned in love with you
G
the
way i have too!
[Chorus]
C Em
Your life is the ocean
C F
and your heart is a wave
C Em
like a dog in the sun
F C
I found my peace in your storm
C Em
as i sail for days
F C
I keep drowning away
C Em
would the gods forgive me
F G
for feeling this way
[Chorus]
Your life is the ocean
And your heart is a wave
Like a dog in the sun
I Found my peace in your storm
As I sail for days
I keep drowning away
Would my sailors forgive me
For feeling this way
[Verse 1]
You said, "HeyMister!
Do follow-through
Let's go and build a house
Big enough to fit us two
We'll weave a castle there
The castle of our dreams
My knight in dining armor
And I your blanket queen"
[Verse 2]
Girl, You're just like that pretty house
With wooden beams, you're facing south
You are my shelter, you are my little home
Your walls are painted pink and green
With a hint of Tangerine
I see a crack in the window
I'm waking up to hold you
Your blemishes, all your tragedies are mine
[Chorus]
Cause Your life is the ocean
And your heart is a wave
Lika A dog in the sun
I Found my peace in your storm
As I sail for days
I keep drowning away
Would my sailors forgive me
For feeling this way
[Verse 3]
As days turn into years
Got more than I deserved
There's So much left to learn
As I flip through your pages
As sweet as Crème Brûlée
These memories we've made
Now Let me take your hand
And Offer a lifetime
[Verse 4]
Cause Darling all these years have gone
Just as the tree we sat upon
So afraid to fall, the way we laughed, we made it through
My sailors, they have come 'round
Their ballads bring a different sound
I guess they all have drowned in love with you
The way I have too!
[Chorus]
Cause Your life is the ocean
And your heart the biggest wave
Like A dog in the sun
I Found my peace in your storm
As I sail for days
I keep drowning, drowning away
Would the gods forgive me
For feeling this way
