Belle and Sebastian - Sea of Sorrow: chords

G                        Bm
When I see the faraway smiling faces
Em                      G
When I feel the subtle pull of your graces
C                       Am
When the sun is falling on magic places
        D
You're giving me hints of ecstasy

Every other day I'm frozen with worry
Looking for a way to shed my own body
But I know it's just like a jacket
A layer of skin

Chorus:
D#dim Em          B7
       Though we wreck ourselves
        Am                     D
On the rocks that never even existed
Em      B7                     Am
We just keep on going with the hate
                          D
We're going to have to resist it
                      C    G
Swimming in a sea of sorrow
                         C    G
Heading for a world of promise
                      C   G
Swimming in a sea of sorrow
                         C    G
Heading for a world of promise

Every other day, I'm thinking about you
Praying and beseeching you like a guru
Heaven will protect and hold you in bliss,
I'm convinced of this
You are all things to all people

Words can be a vicious vessel of torment
Words can be the simple comfort of moments
Sending you the honest words that I'm storing
Will stay with you in the night, in the morning

Chorus:
Em         B7
Though we wreck ourselves
        Am                     D
On the rocks that never even existed
Em      B7                     Am
We just keep on going with the hate
                         D
We're going to have to resist it
                      C    G
Swimming in a sea of comfort
                      C    G
Heading for a sea of sorrow
                      C    G
Swimming in a sea of comfort
                      C    G
Heading for a sea of sorrow

Though we wreck ourselves
On the rocks that never even existed
We just keep on going with the hate
We're going to have to resist it
Swimming in a sea of sorrow
Heading for a world of promise
Swimming in a sea of sorrow
Heading for a world of promise

Swimming in a sea of sorrow
Heading for a world of comfort
Swimming in a sea of sorrow
Heading to a world of comfort
