verse 2: Em F#/G G C B Michael threw his glasses in the cold green water. Em F#/G G C Em Hermit crabs ran as he dove down under. Em F#/G G C B One of his shoes bobbed on the waves. Em F#/G G C Em Seagulls circled 'til it finally sank.
C G 'Lie down, lie down in the dark rolling sea. D Am When you get to the bottom we'll kiss you to sleep.' C G 'Lie down, lie down in the dark rolling sea. D Em When you get to the bottom we'll kiss you to sleep.'
