Intro: 0:00 Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm G | G | E | E Bm | Bm 0:53 G | G | Bm | Bm - x2 Verse 1: 1:07 Bm F#m Sweet surrender A E Bm On the quayside, Bm F#m You remember A E Bm We used to run and hide 1:20 Bm In the shadows of cargoes F#m I take you one time, A We're counting all the numbers E! Bm Down to the waterline. Well, Verse 2: 1:31 Bm F#m Near misses on the A E Bm Dogleap stairways, Bm F#m French kisses in the A E Bm Darkened doorways, 1:45 Bm Foghorn blowing out F#m Wild and cold, A A policeman shines a light E! Bm Upon my shoulder. Instrumental: 1:55 G | A | Bm | Bm - x2 Verse 3: 2:09 Bm F#m Up comes a coaster, A E Bm Fast and silent in the night, Bm F#m Over my shoulder A E Bm All you can see are pilot lights. 2:22 Bm No money in our jackets and our F#m Jeans are torn, A Your hands are cold, E! Bm But your lips are warm. Instrumental: 2:33 G | G | Bm | Bm G | A 2:43 E | C#m | C9 | C9 G | G | C9 | C9 2:57 D | D | A | A F# | F# | G | A Verse 4: 3:10 Bm F#m She can see him on the jetty where A E Bm They used to know, Bm F#m She can feel him in the places where A E Bm The sailors go. 3:24 Bm When she's walking by the river F#m Or the railway line, A She can still hear him whisper: E! Bm "Let's go down to the waterline. Come on." Coda: 3:35 G | A | Bm | Bm - x2 G | A A! | Bm9!!
