Standard (EADGBE)
In the beginning she was stunning and pure
When he first saw her he fainted to the floor
She was distant and arrogant from the start
She did not see the fragile state of his heart
She fell in love with him
On that very day
She became softer
In every way
Even though
They were so in love
They drew a line in the sand
Just because
They did not know each other
They did not trust
The only thing that they did together
Was to make love
Break
from 0:53 to 1:02
So paradise found was not paradise to him
Oh yes he loved her
But he was still an Englishman
Tropical birds
And the heat
And the ocean
Only drove him crazy
Drove her away from him
Even though
They were so in love
They drew a line in the sand
Just because
They did not know each other
They did not trust
The only thing that they did together
Was to make love
BREAK / SOLO: from 1:45 to 1:53
She burned his house down saying
You may have forgotten me
But youll remember this
You fell to the ground when you saw this
My face my eyes my lips
You may have forgotten me
But youll never forget this kiss
Even though
They were so in love
They drew a line in the sand
Just because
They did not know each other
They did not trust
The only thing that they did together
Was to make love
Break
with slide guitar
When that big house burned down all around her
In the smoke and the fire
In the devastation they never found her
She went back into her red dress
Back to her white house
To her ocean
And after that no words were spoken
About the two of them
Ever again
Even though
They were so in love
They drew a line in the sand
Just because
They did not know each other
They did not trust
The only thing that they did together
Was to make love
Break
THEN : - OVER AND OVER UNTIL THE END OF THE SONG.
In the beginning
She was stunning and pure
In the smoke and the fire
Well they never found her
She went back into the ocean
Back to her white house
For a while they were so in love
For a while they were so in love
She burned his house down
NO GUITAR FROM THIS POINT ON UNTIL THE END
My face
My eyes
My lips
You may have forgotten that
You may have forgotten that
You may have forgotten that
But youll never forget that
kiss
