^GI dreamed I heard that you were dead I ^Bmdreamed I searched an empty ^Embed ^G For a sign ^Emof you ^GAnd the ^Dsea called hard to me Like a cell without a ^Emkey And ^DI felt the ^Cdistance ^DI watched the tall ships go With the ^Emdrift wood on the flow ^CWith pride that grows in hardship And ^DI knew you were below

[Chorus]

^GI hear your voice And it ^Emkeeps me from ^Dsleeping ^GWhy must it always be ^Emdreams When your ^Dvoice comes to me
