Far [Bb]away at the [C]shore, in a town beside the [Dm]sea
A[Gm]lone stands a [Am]girl, staring [A]longingly
It is [Bb]here, at the [C]shore, that she [Am]holds unto her [Dm]chest
A [Bb]secret she [C]dare never speak[Dm]
[Bb]“If you write a [Am]wish upon a paper and you [Dm]place
It [Gm]into a [A]glass bott[Dm]le
And [Bb]it’s washed away [C]by the [A]ocean then [Dm]someday
There’s a [Gm]chance that it may just come [E]true”
Drifting [F]farther [G]away, riding [Em]swiftly on the [Am]waves
A [Dm]message containing a [F]wish was [E]made
Heading [F]steadily toward[G] the [E]horizon[Am]
And [Dm]gradually [Em]fad[C]ing [F]away
[F] [Em] [F] [Em] [Dm]-[G]-[Em]-[Am]-[Bm]-[E]-[Am] [F] [G] [Em] [Am] [E] [A] [Am]
Through the [Bb]darkest of [C]days, you were [Am]always by my [Dm]side
No [Gm]matter what I [Am]would say, you [Dm]would [A]abide
Constant[Bb]ly I let my [C]selfishness [Am]take control of me
And [Bb]caused you a [C]life full of [Dm]gief
But [Bb]now, all [C]because of the mistakes that [Dm]I have made
You’re no [A]longer here with [Dm]me
In [Bb]order to [C]get all this [A]pain off of my [Dm]chest
I must [Gm]spill my woes into the [E]sea
Drifting [F]farther [G]away, [Em]little wish upon the [Am]waves
With [Dm]eyes full of [Em]tears, she reg[F]rets those [E]days
It is [F]then that she [G]real[Em]izes this:[Am]
Her [Dm]sin has taken every[C]thing [F]away
[G] [Em] [F] [E] [Am] [F] [E] [G] [Dm] [E] [Dm] [E]
Drifting [Am]farther [G]away, [Em]riding swiftly on the [Am]waves
A [Dm]message con[G]taining a [A]wish was [E]made
Heading [F]steadily [G]toward the [E]hori[Am]zon
And [D]gradually [C]fading away[Am]
[C]Drifting [F]farther [G]away, [Em]little wish upon the [Am]waves
A [Dm]message containing a [F]wish was [E]made
Heading [F]steadily toward[G] the [E]horizon[Am]

If the [F]day comes[G] that we are re[Em]born again[Am]....[Dm] [Em]
