How I Became The Sea

Key: [D]

[Bm]  June was the lobster shell [A]
I dug by hand [Bm]
A haven that hid me well[G]
Beneath the sand[A]
[Bm]  The white windy waves washed in[A]
But I stayed dry [Bm]

The great breakers broke again
'Cause [G]I'm on and off[D] inside[A]

And then,[G] when the empress [Bm]run aground[A]
And my eyes turned [D/F#]blue and green[G]
I heard a gorgeous [Bm]sound[A]
And that's when it became[D] a dream [G]
When the sky fell [Bm]in  [A]
When the hurricanes [D/F#]came for me[G]
I could finally [Bm]crash again[A]
And that's how I became[D] the sea[Bm]    [G]       [Bm]           [G]              [A]

same as verse 1):
I wrenched the engines off
And dragged them down
The depths turned the iron soft
As they swiftly drowned
And I brought the ocean side
To its rusty knees
As I felt the even tide
Deep in my shallow dreams

And then,[G] when the empress [Bm]run aground[A]
And my eyes turned [D/F#]blue and green[G]
I heard a gorgeous [Bm]sound[A]
And that's when it became[D] a dream [G]
When the sky fell [Bm]in  [A]
When the hurricanes [D/F#]came for me [G]
I could finally [Bm]crash again[A]
And that's how I became[D] the sea

And that's how I became[D] the sea[G]
