A                         C#m                  D      F#m
The Atlantic was born today, and I'll tell you how:
A                      C#m             D      F#m    E
The clouds above opened up and let it out.
A                                  C#m 
I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
         D                  F#m    E
When the water filled every hole.
A                                     C#m
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean,
                      D               F#m
Making islands where no island should go.
    E   
Oh no.

A                     C#m                     D          F#m
Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats.
A                        C#m                    D        F#m   E
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat.
A                                    C#m             
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing floodlands to your door
          D                F#m       E
Have been silenced forever more.
     A                                C#m
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
         D                   F#m
It seems farther than ever before
   A
Oh no.


D                       A  F#m  E
I need you so much closer [x4]
