Verse 1
           Em                              C         D 
I saw you throw your hands in the air and say a prayer 
     D                                               C 
Your eyes closed, your nose breathing in the salty air 
                            Em            D                Bm 
There was nothing you could do to make me love you anymore 
              C               Em 
You said, "What I despair in you 
  D                                         C 
I don't feel like I'm going anywhere with you 
 
I might as well fling myself into your ocean 
       D                          Bm 
At least then I'll would be with you!" 
 
Chorus
         Em            C 
And the ocean roared 
         D           Bm 
And the ocean howled 
        C Em 
And the ocean roared 
           D       Bm 
And the ocean howled

Verse 2
   C                          Em 
So you jumped down from the cliff you climbed to 
          D        Bm 
Into paradise that lay below you 
   C 
I could only stare 
      Em                      D 
And let my tears fall into the ocean
