  			Intro

Verse 
               G 
She's like the ocean, that takes my breath away 
            D 
Endless and open, and in a moment she can change 
     G 
Like water flowin' and fillin' up my soul 
   D 
No way of knowin' how deep she really goes 
        Bm             A                 G 
And sometimes I can predict her like the tides 
        Bm                  A           G     A7 
And somedays her storm will take me surprise 

Chorus 
            G                                D 
But I'm her rock upon the shoreline, I'm her piece of solid ground 
            G                D      D/C#         Bm                  A7 
And I'm the one that she can lean on    when her waves come crashin' down 
          G                    D         D/C#  Bm        A    G 
And she's afraid that with the rain I'll drift away and disappear 
             Em                 A7                        G 
But she's my ocean, and I'm her island, I ain't goin' anywhere 

Verse 
               G 
What she don't know is before she came along 
            D 
I was goin' nowhere, so close to bein' gone 
Bm           A               G 
Just another drifter lost at sea 
Bm                A       G          A7 
Until the day her love surrounded me 

Chorus 
            G                                D 
But I'm her rock upon the shoreline, I'm her piece of solid ground 
            G                D      D/C#         Bm                  A7 
And I'm the one that she can lean on    when her waves come crashin' down 
          G                    D         D/C#  Bm        A    G 
And she's afraid that with the rain I'll drift away and disappear 
             Em                 A7                        G 
But she's my ocean, and I'm her island, I ain't goin' anywhere 

Solo 
G  D  G  D  Bm  D  G  A7 

          G                    D         D/C#  Bm            A G 
And she's afraid that with the rain I'll drift away and I'll disappear 
                A7 
But I'm stayin' right here 
                Em                 A7                       G     D   G  D 
'Cause she's my ocean, and I'm her island, I ain't goin' anywhere 
     D/C# Bm    G    D 
Yeah I'm    her island
