Tom: A
A E
They gathered by the sea
F#m C#m
Sand people anxiously
A E
Not once did speak to me
F#m C#m
When tides came did not flee
[Interlude]
A E F#m C#m
[Verse 2]
A E
They each spoke the same
F#m
Had the same dreams
C#m
Same pain
A
And same feelings
E F#m
Staring at the sea
C#m
And what was left of me
[Interlude]
A E F#m C#m
[Chorus]
A E F#m
Lay me down by the beach
C#m
With my sand people
A E F#m C#m
A E F#m
Lay me down by the beach
C#m
With my sand people
[Interlude]
A E F#m C#m
[Verse 3]
A E
I guess after awhile
F#m
They all found out
C#m
They tried to shout
A
But when in doubt
E F#m
The facade of the sea
C#m
Staring back at me
[Interlude]
A E F#m C#m
[Verse 3]
A E
Each led like sheep
F#m
Step foot to sea
C#m
Drowning oh so patiently
A E F#m
Sand people sit and wait
C#m
Anxiously
[Interlude]
A E F#m C#m
[Chorus]
A E F#m
Lay me down by the beach
C#m
With my sand people
A E F#m C#m
A E F#m
Lay me down by the beach
C#m
With my sand people
[Interlude]
A E F#m C#m
[Chorus]
A E F#m
Lay me down by the beach
C#m
With my sand people
A E F#m C#m
A E F#m
Lay me down by the beach
C#m
With my sand people
