Tom: G
C G
King of the ocean, riding the seven seas
C
And every thought of you is floating on the breeze
G
Every thought of you is floating on the breeze
C G
Left to find kingdoms, but leaving a kingdom behind
C
And every thought of you is always on my mind
G
Every thought of you is always on my mind
[Chorus]
Emi D C G
Oh, your memory's stronger than a thousand ships
D
Of war to call me home
Emi D C G
And though it's glory I'm chasing, its from glory I run
Ami C G
'Cos those glory days are done
[Refrain]
C G
But I won't break, even when the Earth around me shakes
Emi
And the things that have built us up have brought us down
C G
Sometimes you have to leave the things you love, for love
C G
Your siren's sigh, your whisper always louder than your cry
Emi
But your memory lives long beyond goodbye
C G
But I know that I have to leave and can't come back, for you
Ami C
Ahhhhhh-Ahhhh-Ahhhhh-Ahhhhh
G
Ahhhhh-Ah-Ahhhh
[Verse]
C G
Oh remember the winters, light hearts and the lonely trees,
C
They're the memories I'll always keep with me,
G
They're the memories I always keep with me.
C G
The wide world between us, still see you with each new sun,
C
But now I have to tell myself those days are done,
G
Now I have to tell myself those days are done.
[Chorus]
Emi D C G
Oh your memory's stronger than a thousand ships
D
of war to call me home.
Emi D C G
And though its glory I'm chasing its from glory I run,
Ami C G
those glory days are done!
[Refrain]
C G
But I won't break, even when the earth around me shakes,
Emi
When the things that have built us up have brought us down,
C G
Sometimes you have to leave the things you love, for love.
C G
Your siren's sigh, your whisper always louder than your cry,
Emi
But your memory lives long beyond goodbye,
C G
Oh I know that I have to leave and can't come back, for you.
