VERSE 

        A           E                F# 
Oh my darling, you are the restless sea  

            A           E         F# 
With your black heart raging over me 

         A        E         D              F# 
Has the blue sky seen the same troubles as we? 

          A        E                 A  
Tell me true, my love, the restless sea 


            A            E        F# 
There are three things never satisfied 

      A           E        F# 
The grave, your heart and mine 

             A             E          D              F# 
But I will hold you in my arms where rust and sorrow lie 

       A          E             A        
Underneath the bounding main tonight 



Chorus 

    D          F# 
By now, you must've found better than me 

            A           E            F# 
I'm sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet 

    D                    F# 
By now, I'm sure you've gotten over me 

               A                 E              F# 
While you're kissing clouds and gods, I'll be crawling on my knees 

              A    E   F# 
Sweet Morphine 



verse 2 

                       A        E              F# 
And yes, I've come to know you are the endless night 

        A                       E         F# 
High above my love and the constellation light 

                A           E             D                       F# 
Waving your fingertips of sleep over the dark on the face of the deep 

          A        E              A    
Endless night, I know you well, indeed 




Chorus 

    D          F# 
By now, you must've found better than me 

            A           E            F# 
I'm sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet 

    D                    F# 
By now, I'm sure you've gotten over me 

               A                 E              F# 
While you're kissing clouds and gods, I'll be crawling on my knees
