Verse
Bm B
How the tide rushes in
A Bm
And covers footprints in the sand
Bm A E
As my hope's erased and carried
E Em
Out of my hand
Bm B
How the tides ebb and flow
A Bm
As driftwoods tossed upon the shore
Bm A E
And my heart's cast aside and lost
E Em
evermore
Bm G F#m Bm
Yet though the ocean with waves unending
Bm E G
Covers the earth
F#m E
Yet is there loss after all
Bm B
For what e'er drifts from one place
A E
Is with the tide to another brought
Bm A E
And there's naught lost beyond recall
E Em
Which cannot be found
Bm
If sought
Bm G F#m Bm
Yet though the ocean with waves unending
Bm E G
Covers the earth
F#m E
Yet is there loss after all
Bm B
For what e'er drifts from one place
A E
Is with the tide to another brought
Bm A E
And there's naught lost beyond recall
E Em
Which cannot be found
Bm
If sought
