  			Em 
   Home by the sea, home by the sea,  
   home by the sea, home by the sea 
  
                            D 
Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall 
                             Em 
Stealing through the dark of night 
                           D 
Climbing through a window, stepping to the floor 
                             Em 
Checking to the left and the right 
                       D 
Picking up the pieces, putting them away 
                             C     Am 
Something doesn't feel quite right 
  
Em                  C        Am     Em 
   Help me, someone,  let me out of here 
     C          Am       D        Bm 
Then out of the dark was suddenly heard 
C               Am          Em 
"Welcome to the home by the sea" 
  
                         D 
Coming out the woodwork, through the open door 
                         Em 
Pushing from above and below 
                           D 
Shadows with no substance, in the shape of men 
                                 Em 
Round and down and sideways they go 
                          D 
Adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair 
                               C    Am 
Then as one they sigh and they moan 
  
Em                   C        Am     Em 
   "Help us, someone,  let us out of here 
C      Am      D            Bm 
Living here so long undisturbed 
C               Am           Em 
Dreaming of the time we were free 
   C    Am     Em 
So many years ago 
  C        Am        D        Bm 
Before the time when we first heard 
 C              Am          Em 
'Welcome to the home by the sea'" 
  
G          Bm       D  Em          G          Bm       D 
  Sit down,   sit down,   sit down,  sit down,   sit down 
   C             G                Bm    D 
As we relive our lives in what we tell you 
  
Em  Am  Em  Cadd9  Em  G  F  C  Am  Em  Bm  Em 
  
                  D 
Images of sorrow, pictures of delight 
                            Em 
Things that go to make up a life 
                        D 
Endless days of summer, longer nights of gloom 
                        Em 
Waiting for the morning light 
                        D 
Scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame 
                            C    Am 
Things that go to make up a life 
  
Em                    C        Am     Em 
   "Help us, someone,   let us out of here 
C      Am      D            Bm 
Living here so long undisturbed 
C               Am           Em 
Dreaming of the time we were free 
   C    Am     Em 
So many years ago 
  C        Am        D        Bm 
Before the time when we first heard 
 C              Am          Em 
'Welcome to the home by the sea'" 
  
G          Bm       D       Em             G          Bm       D 
  Sit down,   sit down, sit down, sit down,  sit down,   sit down 
   C             G                Bm       D 
As we relive our lives in what we tell you 
    C             G                Bm   D 
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you 
Em     G              Bm       D 
   Sit down, sit down,   sit down 
           Em 
'Cause you won't get away 
         G 
No, with us you will stay 
        Bm 
For the rest of your days 
      D 
Sit down 
   C             G                Bm       D 
As we relive our lives in what we tell you 
    C             G                Bm   D 
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you 
  
Em  Am  Em  Cadd9  Em  G  F  C  Am  Em  Bm  Em
