VERSE1
      [Cmaj9] [F#m7] [lick1] [Cmaj9] [G]
As I'm leaving
            [Cmaj9] [F#m7] [lick1] [Cmaj9] [G]
A change comes on my eyes
                 [Cmaj9] [F#m7] [lick1] [Cmaj9] [G]
These thoughts persuading me
             [Cmaj9] [F#m7] [lick1] [Cmaj9] [G]
With mumbles strange goodbyes

CHORUS
                [Cmaj9]
And through the water
            [D]
Through the ring
        [Am]       [G]
To the soul of everything
         [Cmaj9]
I wash my heart out
       [D\F#]
On the stones
                    [Cmaj9] [F#m7] [lick1] [Cmaj9] [G]
And I'm almost gone

Continues as same pattern for rest of song.

VERSE2
And there's no meaning
In clothes and coffee cups
Cheap hotel furniture
Where silence never stops

CHORUS times 1

VERSE3
And now I'm dreaming
I'm staring at the walls
At cars all frozen now
In late night waterfalls

Finnish on CHORUS again.

Apologies... the text editer has messed up the chording and "riff" start and finish points on the version indicated below. Listen to the CD to get it "sync'd" correctly.- Dave Allen

My apologies... the tab/chord start and finish points have been messed up in the tranfer to this web site in the version I included below. (Low tech text editer). Just listen to the CD to straighten out the cue points- Dave Allen

This version isn't as DG plays it on Lost songs and is overly complicated. There are simpler, more accurate versions out there on the net.
