[Key change - C major, relative to the capo]

G5
Sea full of diamonds, good morning new day
G5
I'll fix us breakfast, and the newspaper says
    C5                                  G5
The company will lay off 5,000 souls today

   G5
"I wish I was a child with no worries back then", I say
 G5
"Kiss me and smile...", you reply, in your way
    C5                                               G5
You wake up the children for school... for the last time
    C5
For suddenly our beautiful life blurs away
        G5
And the world breaks into pieces

C.. C.. C.. C..
G.. G.. D.. E5 *

       G5         D5     B5
'Cause today the sea came in
         D5                 E5 *
The wave came and stole my loved ones
  G5           D5   B5                        E5 *
I write these lines alone on the rooftop of my home
     G5            D5 B5      D5       E5 *
I'm adrift on the vast oceans, can you feel me?
       G5       D5 B5         D5
I will not see you again, even if I live through
    E5
The day when the sea came...
( E5 )
Day when the sea came...
( E5 )
Day when the sea came in...

E5
I trace the scenes our children once played
E5
Names carved in wood, all the words, bound to fade
    D5
I believe, my love, your memory and dreams
                        E5
Deserve to live again tomorrow...


    C5                                                         G5
(My love...) We built this world together, we lived in here together,
                                                     C5
And shared the fun together, bore the sorrows, all together
                                                 (My friend...)
                                                    G5
We'll win the fight together, we'll lose the game together
                                                    C5
Greet the heroes all together, and forever, we'll remember
                                                (My world...)
                                                 G5
We built this world together, we lived in here together
                                                     C5
And shared the fun together, bore the sorrows, all together
                                                G5
And as long as we're together, in spirit, yet together,
                                                     C5     G5
You're the air that I am kissing, you will always be there...

                      C5    G5
I can feel you in the wind...
                      C5    G5
I can feel you in the wind...

C... G... C...
