               G                      C              D 
And there were two silhouettes in the sunset hand in hand 
       C                D           G   G/F#      C/E 
But now here beside the sea are the footprints of three 
                                  D 
And I can't find my own among the directions they're all going 
            G                C                 D

          G                         C                 D

      C             D               G   G/F#       C/E

                                                     D 
'cause you're the only home I've ever wanted and the only light I've known 
                G                C                 D

And where our footprints used to be there'll be nothing but the sea 
                                                   D 
And the tide and the wind and the open sky and the unbroken horizon 
            G                C                 D 
Baby it's alright break this chain of love and madness 
       G               C                 D 
It's alright take this pain and all your sadness
