Tune your guitar 1/2 step down.
To play the INTRO use the E and C#m with their
shapes at the 4th fret playing on the
4th and 5th strings and picking the transitions to
B and then E.
If you find that E/9 chord (I made it up) very difficult
to play use the E simple chord(x221xx).
Actually, I'm not sure about the chords or the
tone either. Roddy you got me!
Any correction, comment or suggestion will be very apreciated.

INTRO: E-Cm#-B9-E
E/9--------------------
Screaming on the shore
---------------------F#m7------
Daring the waves to wipe us out
B9----------------------B9(+)--------------B9-
Off the sand, the sinking sun in your hand
-----E/9---------------
Like we rule the waves
E/9----------------------------------F#m7------
I see a soul, straggling, cold in the sunshine,Waiting for
----B9--------B9(+)-------B9----E/9--------
a sure sign, half resigned to let it go

And if you’ll say you will

When the storm hits and the lines are down

All in bits and the days are long
----------B(open)--------------E(full)------
I'm gonna come on down to your rescue
(BACK TO INTRO)
E(full) (let it ring)..............
Lap at my laces trailing in the sand
F#m7-----------B9--
Force my hand, ocean
B9(+)-B9--E/9--------
Softly bend my will
E/9---------------------------------
Let it cleave to the day as it flows
-----F#m7-------------------B9-----------E/9--
Let me be relieved of the pressing need to know
E/9-A6---------------B9(FULL)
And full and finally freed
---E(full)-B----
Of my -----will
E(FULL)---------------------------F#m(open)--
Here come the waves crashing home sea spray

Wash away the memories
E(FULL)--------------------------------F#m(open)--
Of the way we were, all uptight In the still of the night
-------B(open)--------------B(+)(open)--B(open)
In the candlelight Feeling let-------- down
------------------F#m7(full)-E/9 (full)
And trying not to make-------waves...
