I condensed the lyrics down so the page isn't unnecessarily long.
There is a basic embellishment played at the end of the chorus which
is just switching between D, Dsus2(D2), and Dsus4(D4):
D D2 D D4 D D2 D
E----2---0---2---3---2---0---2----|
B----3---3---3---3---3---3---3----|
G----2---2---2---2---2---2---2----|
D----0---0---0---0---0---0---0----|
A----0---0---0---0---0---0---0----|
E----0---0---0---0---0---0---0----|
I will be representing this using the symbol (DD)
Enjoy yo'self!
Capo 1
-----SEA OF HEARTBREAK-----
D Bm G A Asus4 A
The lights in the harbor don't shine for me
D Bm G A /STOP/
I'm like a lost ship adrift on the sea
[CHORUS]:
D A
This sea of heartbreak, lost love and loneliness
D G
memories of your caress, so divine, how I wish
D A /STOP/
you were mine again my dear I'm on this sea of tears
(DD) x2
Sea of heartbreak
D Bm G A Asus2 A
Oh how did I lose you oh where did I fail
D Bm G A /STOP/
Why did you leave me always to sail
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]:
G D
Oh what I'd give just to sail back to shore
G E7
back to your arms once more
D Bm G A Asus4 A
Oh come to my rescue oh come here to me
D Bm G A /STOP/
Take me and keep me away from the sea
[FINAL CHORUS]:
D A
This sea of heartbreak, lost love and loneliness
D G
memories of your caress, so divine, how I wish
D A /STOP/
you were mine again my dear I'm on this sea of tears
(DD) G A
Sea of heartbreak
(DD) G A
Sea of heartbreak
(DD) G A
Sea of heartbreak
(DD) G A D
Sea of heartbreak
