Taken by the Sea Darren Hayes
I play this with the capo on the 4th fret. I worked it out just messing around.
I don't promise there are no mistakes, so feel free to leave corrections in the
comments, but it does work to sing to, even if it isn't perfect.
[G]Love, lay me down slay me with wh[Em]ispers
[D]Reassure me that it's alright
[G]I, I hit the deck, I hit rock b[Em]ottom
[D]But you saw me, then you caught me
[C]Shining like a ray of hope sw[Em]ift like a turning sea
[D]Angel to comfort me
[C]Cradling my head in your hands
[D]I looked up at the s[G]un and the f[Em]og cleared,
I s[D]aw you
And I w[C]ant you and t[D]hat's so [G]terrif[Em]ying
And I w[C]ant you to h[D]elp put [G]out the f[Em]ire
[Em]Cause I am an island, you are the ocean
And all of my s[D]adness t[G]aken by the [Em]sea
[G]Fall, I took a fall. I took it [Em]easy
[D]On the surface I was perfect
[G]But down, way down below, I started beli[Em]eving
I de[D]served it. Was I worthless?
[C]Sinking like a rescue boat
[Em]Washing right over me
[D]Vessel is struggling
Waving both my hands in the a[C]ir
Then the b[D]lindness of l[G]ove
Then your a[Em]rms all arou[D]nd me
And I w[C]ant you and t[D]hat's so [G]terrif[Em]ying
And I w[C]ant you to h[D]elp put [G]out the f[Em]ire
[Em]Cause I am an island, you are the ocean
And all of my s[D]adness t[G]aken by the [Em]sea
[C]And I want so much to beli[G]eve
[C]That I won't disappear in the w[Em]ater
[C]That I won't always be swimming against the tide[Em]
And I w[C]ant you and t[D]hat's so [G]terrif[Em]ying
And I w[C]ant you to h[D]elp put [G]out the f[Em]ire
[Em]Cause I am an island, you are the ocean
And all of my s[D]adness t[G]aken by the [Em]sea
