          C5          G        G#
There was no one all around
          C5               G   G#
There was no one there but me
      C5            G          G#
I was staring out a window

I was standing by the sea

    C5              G           G#
The waves kept on repeating
         C5              G      G#
Each one crashing to the shore
       C5                 G     G#
And my footprints nowhere leading
          C5             G      G#
As they disappeared once more


Bass Riff played eight times.


      C5                G            G#
Your senses they are bombarded
       C5               G            G#
By the roaring that you hear
     C5                        G     G#
In a shell    you can hear the ocean
         C5                     G    G#
When you put it up   up to your ear


          C5          G        G#
There was no one all around
          C5               G   G#
There was no one there but me
      C5            G          G#
I was staring out a window
      C5              G        G#
I was standing by the sea
