Cm             D#
In an ocean of Noise,
G#                  A# G#
I first heard your voice
Cm              D#
Ringing like a bell,
G#              A#       G#
as if I had a choice, oh well

Left in the morning
While you were fast asleep
Into an ocean of violence
A world of empty streets

Chorus:
Cm              D#       G#               A#
You've got your reasons, and me I've got mine
    Cm       A#       D#
But all the reasons I gave
           G#     Cm A#
Were just lies to buy
             Cm  A# Cm A# Cm A#
Myself some time

In an ocean of noise
I first heard your voice
Now who here among us
Still believes in choice?
Not I!

No way of knowing
What any man will do
An ocean of violence
Between me and you

Chorus

D# Cm
I'm gonna work it out
'Cause time won’t work it out
I'm gonna work it out
'Cause time won’t work it out for you
I'm gonna work it on out
'Cause time won't work it out for you
I'm gonna work it out
'Cause time won’t work it out
I'm gonna work it on out
