Intro: G  C  G 
  
Isn't it grand  
                                  D           G 
I picked up a pebble on the sand, it knows my hand 
             C      D 
I taught the sea my song 
       G        C      D         G 
And it sings it for me when I am gone 
  
  
  
Seasons of rain 
                             D            G 
I bring my little river, the sea knows my pain 
           C      D 
I gave the sea my tears 
         G       C        D        G 
And I'll cry for you when I am not here 
   
   
  
Under the sun 
                               D             G 
All of the pebbles on the sand know why I've come 
              C         D 
The sea knows what I've done 
       G                   D           G 
And it missed the sea toys that I took home 
               C       D         G       
And it's gonna miss me when I am gone 
               C         D            G     
And it's gonna miss you 'cause we are one
