[Em] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [Em] Late one night I had [B] a notion _
An [Em] epiphany would be a better [D] word
So [C#] I stumbled in the dark down [C] to the ocean
And [B] I pulled my broken heart out [Em] of the surf
[D] _
[Em] I had told her I did not have much [B] to offer
And [Em] I had told her I would treat her [D] like a queen
But [C#] I guess I wasn't worth what I [C] would cost her
[G] _
[B] So the night has brought me to this [Em] coral reef
[D] So _ [C] down to the water [G] I will come
To [C] raise for her this [G] castle with my hands
To [C] steal away before the [A] morning sun
I [D] don't need her [C] love to love her all [G] I can
No, [C] _ [D] no
[G] _ So _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [Em] night on night and [B] year on year
Well [Em] I worked until my hands no [D] longer bled
And [C#] I let the ocean bear [C] away my tears
[Em] [B] So that she would know that I could love [Em] her best
[D] And [C] a desert's just a sea without [G] a shore
[C] A lonely man at worst is [G] still a man
[C] And I ain't gonna cry [G] for [C#] her no more
Cause I [D] don't need her [C] love to love her all [G] I can
No, [C] no _
_ [G] I _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] often dreamed [Em] I saw her face among [B] the people
I'd come [Em] to see a coral fortress [D] I had built
_ [C#] But it may as well have been another [C] seagull
And [B] the castle is there waiting [Em] for her still
[D] So _ [C] down to the [G] water I will come
To [C] wander through this [G] castle on the sand
[C] To steal away before the [C#] morning sun
Cause I [D] don't need her [C] love to love her [G] all I can
I [D] don't need her [C] love to love her [G] all I can [C] No, no _
