Interlude:
C                          D            G            Em
When this corpus christic isle became a landed ocean blue
C                          D
Again she cried, "You turned my eye"
G                    Em
At mentions of "no matter why"
(First phrase of Main Riff repeated for the rest of Interlude and First Chorus)
C                 D
And in the end an August sun
G                Em
Of one by one it blew
C                                 D
Until the devil screamed in the evermore
G                    Em
In envy of the grace we saw
G
The sound… (Chorus starts here making the rest of the Interlude lyrics unintelligible)

Chorus:
C                   D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G                                 Em
The song, the spray, the gorgeous undertow
C                         D
Always, always, always the sea
G                Em
Brilliantine mortality
C                   D
Oh the heavy water, how it enfolds
G                                 Em
The song, the spray, the gorgeous undertow
C                         D
Always, always, always the sea
G         (Guitar stops)
Brilliantine mortality

Note: There is a quick chord from Guitar I after the first and third lines of the
I don't know what it is. Also, The lyrics of the interlude are hard to distinguish, so those
my approximations. Enjoy.
