verse 1 :
Bm A
june was the lobster shell
Bm
i dug by hand
G
a haven that hid me well
A
beneath the sand
Bm A
the white windy waves washed in
Bm
but i stayed dry

the great breakers broke again
G D A
’cause i’m on and off inside

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

verse 2 ( 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

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