C                  Am                 E 
Long is the night as the day 
Shuts the door I am lying  
Here alone together with an empty chord 

Drifting apart with no one 
To lead our way in a sea of 
Broken dream on raft made of clay 

I look at you and I see 
All the times we left behind have become 
Fading memories clearly out of rich 

And it hurts me to think 
That another day as passed 
And the place where I stand it's closer to an end 

F               C                G 
Give me a reason why 
I should sail upon your shore 
F                C                  G                         Am 
Give me a reason why I should sail upon your shore 

Like the sun and the moon 
We'd never ever crossed our way 
Sometimes it's hard to find yourself when the flame fades away 

Ridding alone with no one 
To lead our way how can I? 
Find a bed where once I used to lay my head  

Give me a reason why 
I should sail upon your shore 
Give me a reason why I should sail upon your shore (2x)
