Intro: B 


verse 1 

         B 
When I'm alone 
                      E 
And I'm staring at my wedding band 
  B 
I search for you 
    E 
Somewhere in the sand 
           B 
And then I call out to you 
              E 
Those deep dark ocean blues 
B        C#m       B 
    Sing me a somber tune 
        B 
And I remember 
             E 
We collected rocks sometimes 
        B 
And you told me 
             E 
That they're beautiful 
               B 
But they're so heavy 
                 E 
Oh Lord, they're heavy 
  B   C#m                   B 
Tonight, I'll bring them to you 

Then I call out to you... 


   B                           E 
Oh darlin' darlin' darlin', Oh darlin' darlin' darlin' 
   B                           E 
My darlin' darlin' darlin', My darlin' darlin' darlin' 
   B                           E 
My darlin' darlin' darlin', My darlin' darlin' darlin' 
   B 
My darlin' darlin' darlin' 


Break 

B 

And she says... 


verse 2 

         B 
My darlin' 
                      E 
I'm out here on a ship at sea 
  B 
In a cardboard box 
    E 
Sailing with your thoughts 

           B 
I heard you call out to me 
              E 
Your deep dark ocean boom 
B        C#m       B 
Is that what you call a somber tune? 

        B 
And tonight 
             E 
I see you collecting rocks, tonight 
        B 
And their beauty 
               E 
And oh Lord, they're heavy 

           B 
If you bring them to me 
              E 
I fear they'll only drown you 
B        C#m       B 
And you'll have no breath for me 


Bridge 

C#m                 B 
     If this is the end 
C#m                   B 
     Show me where to start 
C#m                 B 
     If this is the end 
       E        B 
You can fill my heart 

And we say together... 


   B                           E 
My darlin' darlin' darlin', My darlin' darlin' darlin' 
   B                           E 
My darlin' darlin' darlin', My darlin' darlin' darlin'
