Verse 1:
AA
I think about your pale arms waving
BGbm
When I see the caps upon the green
F/GbmA
And the rocking roller-coaster ocean
A
Think about you every night when I'm fathoms asleep
B
And in my dreams
EbGbAC
We are rocking in a similar motion

Verse 2:
AA
I think about the salt sea rolling
BGbm
Down in pearly tears upon your cheeks
F/GbmA
Just like the day the harbour pulled away
A
I think about your warm white sheets unfolding
B
The more I have to drink
EbGbAC
The more that I can think to say
