Bm                           A   
  June was the lobster shell

              Bm
I dug by hand

                        G 
A haven that hid me well

                A
Beneath the sand

Bm                               A
  The white windy waves washed in

                 Bm
But I stayed dry
The great breakers broke again
       G             D      A
'Cause I'm on and off inside
Chorus:
         G                 Bm         A
And then, when the empress run aground

                   D/F#          G
And my eyes turned blue and green

                   Bm   A
I heard a gorgeous sound

                         D        G
And that's when it became a dream

                  Bm  A
When the sky fell in

                    D/F#       G
When the hurricanes came for me

                Bm         A
I could finally crash again

                       D       Bm  G  Bm  G  A
And that's how I became the sea
Verse 2 (same as verse 1): I wrenched the engines off And dragged them down The depths turned the iron soft As they swiftly drowned And I brought the ocean side To its rusty knees As I felt the even tide Deep in my shallow dreams Chorus:
         G                 Bm         A
And then, when the empress run aground

                   D/F#          G
And my eyes turned blue and green

                   Bm   A
I heard a gorgeous sound

                         D        G
And that's when it became a dream

                  Bm  A
When the sky fell in

                    D/F#        G
When the hurricanes came for me

                Bm         A
I could finally crash again

                       D       
And that's how I became the sea

When the sky fell in

          A
(When the sky fell in)

                    D/F#        G 
When the hurricanes came for me

                Bm         A
I could finally crash again
