[Gm]
[D] Maybe [G] they've come by land, maybe they've come by sea
Maybe they've already come, maybe they've come [C] by me
[D] Jumping into [Em] the twilight, I ride the broken wave tonight
An old song on the radio, you [D] knew a [Em] long time ago
An old song on the radio, going out over the ocean
[C] Carry, [Em]
carry
[C]
[D] Maybe it's World War I, maybe it's World [Em] War III
[D] Maybe it's Vietnam, [G] maybe we're on TV
[F#] Fading [G]
into the [Em] tall grass, [C] melting [D] into [G] the tall glass
[C] Spilling [G] out over the lip and into the ocean, into [D] the ocean
[Em] Carry, [C] carry
[G] [C] Carry [Em] [C] me over the ocean, over [Em] the [D] ocean
[G]
[C] I'll see you over the sea, [G] carry [D] me over the sea
[G] All night, [C] [G] [D] carry me
Maybe I've come so far, maybe I'm on [Em] my knees
[D]
Maybe I'm dead or alive, maybe I'm none [G] of [C] these
[G]
Listen to this song on the radio
Something put on a long time ago
Going over the ocean
Over [D] and over [Em] the ocean
Over and over the ocean
Over and over the ocean
Go and over the ocean
Over [D] and over [Em] the ocean
Over and over
[Bm] [Em] the ocean
[Bm] [Em]
[D] Shimmering over [Em] the ocean
