                   C#
I'm gonna build a raft and set it on the water there
                 A                     B
Hoping she will come, see the thing I made
                C#
What a thing I made



Today I'm gonna sail even if she doesn't show
The ocean can decide, love is like a wave
Love would never fail



                    F
Hope she gets here soon
                  F#
I hope she isn't far away
            A            G#
But if she is, I'll sail anyway



      C#         Bbm        A     G#
Everyday that I love her I kill myself
           C#       Bbm           F#m    G#
It happens over and over, there's no one else
      C#        F           Bbm      Bbm7/G#
And I try to forget her but look at me
       F#m  C#/F   Em D#     C#
Giving everything away for free



And when I'm out at sea, I'm gonna write a song for her
I'll sing across the bay, hoping she will hear
Hoping she will hear


I think she's in her car and just above the...
To hear my serenade reckoning her near
Reckoning her near


And then she's gonna swill
I didn't build my raft in vain
But if I did, we'll both drown anyway


'Cause everyday that I love her I kill myself
It happens over and over, there's no one else
And I try to forget her but look at me
Giving everything away for free
                                   F
Giving everything away for free, free


 Bbm            D#m                   G#
Drown me, it'll stop the pain, if my love's in vain
           B                       Bb
'Cause I knew, I knew she'd never come
                             D#m
'Cause she couldn't bear the ocean
                        F#  A
She couldn't stand the waves



So everyday that I love her I kill myself
It happens over and over, there's no one else
And I try to forget her but look at me
Giving everything away for free
