C9 With a tear in His voice G D He said, "Son, that's the question." Em Does this deafening silence D mean nothing to no one but me? Interlude: C9---D/F# Verse 2: Em C9 As hours move to minutes G D And minutes take longer to break Em I will be desperately awaiting C9 But my tongue won't fall apart G And we've been sitting here for hours D All alone and in the dark C9 G D So let me think of to word it Em D Is it too soon to say 'perfect'? C9 G D If I could find another thirty minutes somewhere Em I'm sure everything would find me D All that's left is just to sing Chorus G And I'll be here by the ocean Just waiting for proof that there's Em sunsets and silhouette dreams C9 All my sand castles fall G D like the ashes of cigarettes Em D And every waves drags me to sea G I could stand here for hours Just to ask God the question Em "Is everyone here make-believe?" C9 With a tear in His voice G D He said, "Son, that's the question." Em Does this deafening silence D mean nothing to no one but me? Bridge: C9 G And you'll sing to me sweet until then C9 G I may never sail Virginia again C9 G Alas this current moves slow for me D Em C9 this much you must know...we'll meet again C9 And I'll, I'll have you know I'm scared to death C9 Tell me once again that you G D will love me till the death Em And should I die, you swear D C9 that you will come for me C9 G D-Em-D As I fade away, you reach out your arms C9 (And please don't let me go) G D Em D And please don't let me go C9 (And please don't let me go) G D Em D And please don't let me go Chorus G And I'll be here by the ocean Just waiting for proof that there's Em sunsets and silhouette dreams C9 All my sand castles fall G D like the ashes of cigarettes Em D And every waves drags me to sea G I could stand here for hours Just to ask God the question Em "Is everyone here make-believe?" C9 With a tear in His voice G D He said, "Son, that's the question." Em Does this deafening silence D mean nothing to no one but me?
