LYRICS

The girl (Asus2)stood on the (E)rocks with the (Asus2)wa ter at her (E)feet and the (Asus2)sun on her skin, and a tear on her cheek.

With her (Asus2)hand at her (E)chest and the (Asus2)wind in her hair, un der neath her (E)breath, like a (B5)beg gar’s prayer, she said, “I miss you.

Come back to me.

I wish you’d come back to me.”

But no bod y (E)heard,

and the (Dsus2)world turned, and the (Asus2)world turned, and the (Dsus2)world turned.

And (Asus2)that’s when the (E)girl (Asus2)reached in her (E)pock et, (Asus2)pulled out a (E)sil ver, heart shaped lock et, (Asus2)o pened it up and looked for a (E)while at a (Asus2)fad ed boy with a (B5)la zy smile.

“Oh, how I miss you.

Come back to me.

I wish you’d come back to me.”

But no bod y (E)heard,

and the (Dsus2)world turned, and the (Asus2)world turned, and the (Dsus2)world turned,

and the (Dsus2)world turned, and the (Asus2)world turned, and the (Dsus2)world (A)turned.

And she walked to the deep est part of the (B)riv er, and she (A)thought a bout (E)div ing in.

She im ag ined how the (A6)cur rent would o

ver take her, how eas y it would be to dis ap pear.

But in stead she tossed the (C#m)lock et

in the cool,

(C#m7)blue

(Asus2)wa ter.

That night in her (E)bed, she (Asus2)let her self (E)weep; she (Asus2)let her self (E)cry her (B5)self to sleep,

and there in a (E)dream, (Asus2)some where in the (E)night, saw the (Asus2)boy in the (E)lock et by the (B5)riv er side, say ing, (Dsus2)world (A)turned.
