[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G C D
On a night just like this, in a place far away
G D G D
He met with a girl in the spring
G Em Bm
And something about him just turned her around
D G D
As though she were caught on a string
G Em C
And being so young they held on to each other
D G D
To see what the moment might bring

[Verse 2]
G C D
He loved her then in a secretive way
G D G D
Not showing his care or his need
G Em Bm
She stayed beside him and looked to the day
D G D
He would somehow begin to be free
G Em C
In the chill of the night she would hold him and say
D G
This is how they always should be

[Chorus]
Em D Em D
Rocks in the ocean, waves on the sea
G G7 C
Keep it in mind if love comes unsatisfied
F C G
Don't forget me, don't forget me

[Interlude]
G F Em D
G F Em D
C Bm Am

[Verse 3]
G C D D/C
And so he came to depend on her more
G D G D
Though the lesson was still to be learned
G Em Bm
Taking for granted the gift that she gave
D D/C G D
As though it were something he'd earned
G Em C
And she for her part growing slowly away
