BmYou F#mremember Awe used to E7run and hidBme
In the Bmshadows of cargoes, I F#mtake you one time
And we're Acounting all the numbers
EDown to the waterliBmne
BmNear F#mmisses on the Adogleap E7stairwaysBm

A Bmfoghorn blowing out F#mwild and cold
A Apoliceman shines a light Eon my shoulderBm

BmUp comes a F#mcoaster, Afast and E7silent Bmin the night
BmOver my F#mshoulder, Aall you can E7see are Bmpilot lights
No Bmmoney in our jackets and our F#mjeans are torn
Your Ahands are cold but your Elips are warmBm

She can Astill hear him whisper
ELet's go down to the Bmwaterline, come on
