Am
It's been six and twenty years.
       Dm              Am
That I cried my lonely tears.
       Dm                E
For my string of darling dears
              Am
And it's been six and twenty years.

[Chorus]
Dm          E                  Am
When I fall it's like a love song
           C                  Dm
But full of, oh they all fade out.
         E             Am
So I try to convince myself
                    Dm
I'm gonna make this count
      E                  Am
But I know how the story folds.
    C                      Dm
And this is where my heart breaks down.
E                         Am
This is where my heart breaks down.

[Verse 2]
Am
Where the ocean meets the street.
       Dm              Am
Took a whaler from the east.
          Dm              E
With this heart he buried me
          Am
Where the ocean meets the street.

Am
I'm a lonely girl.
           Dm              Am
Dressed in red with lonely curls.
        Dm              E
Fill my head with sorry tales
       Am
'cause I'm a lonely girl.

[Chorus]
Dm         E                  Am
When I fall it's like a love song
            C                 Dm
But full of, oh they all fade out.
         E             Am
So I try to convince myself
                    Dm
I'm gonna make this count
      E                  Am
But I know how the story folds.
    C                      Dm
And this is where my heart breaks down.
E                         Am
This is where my heart breaks down.
