VERSE: CCmaj7 Well she tossed all night like a raging sea AmGFEmDmG Woke up and climbed from the suicide machine CCmaj7 With her spanish candles and her persian poems AmGFEmDmG Stuck on the rocks inside opus 40 stoned CCmaj7 And scratching her wrists in the pouring rain AmGFEmD She collapses down upon the ocean floor again
CHORUS:
CFC Tears in waves minds on fire CAmD Nights alone by your side
VERSE:
CCmaj7 Catskill mansions buried dreams AmGFEmDmG I'm alive she cried but i don't know what it means CCmaj7 somewhere out there across the moonlit sands AmGFEmDmG there's a line drawn like the lines on her own hand CCmaj7 and slammin' her eyes lockin' the door AmGFEmD she collapses down upon the ocean floor.... again
CHORUS:
CFC Tears in waves minds on fire CAmD Nights alone by your side
