Song title:	The Land Torments The Sea
Album:          -

Words and Music by Neil Finn and Tim Finn
Copyright © 2004 EMI Records Limited
Published by EMI Music Publishing Limited

NOTES:
This was released as a bonus track to the "Nothing Wrong With You" 
UK single. An earlier version of this song was performed on the 
2002 Nettwerk webcast and snippets have appeared (as "The Land And 
The Sea") on nilfun.com.

Capo on the 3rd fret (so it's actually in Gm). Chord names are given 
as if no capo were used. Chord fingering is numbered from the capo 
position. This is very easy to play and sounds great. Enjoy!

Thanks go to Jack Dalaa for the Em - Am transitions.


INTRO:   Em   Am   D


VERSE:
Em           Am           D
   It took a long time to find it
Em           Am             D
   We drove along the ocean road,
Em           Am        D
   Pulling a trailer behind him
         Am
  It's a heavy load...


CHORUS:
    G       D         G    C
The land torments the sea
                 G   C            G    C
He won't let her in,    time and again
               G    D
He should just give in


VERSE:
And when the ground beneath him trembles
And when the rocks start to fall
I know there'll be no resistance to her endless call


[repeat CHORUS]


BRIDGE:
D        D7    C         G               D
  A man alone,   full of anger turned to stone
               D7    C          G              D
  He hides his face,    drives along the ocean road

G       C      G
Aaaah...aaah...aaaah


CHORUS:
The land torments the sea
He won't let her in,    time and again
  G      D       G        C             G   C
A man forgets to breathe,   looking for trouble, 
               G   C
Trying to find reasons, 
               G    D                 C  G
He should just give in, give into her love
