[INTRO]
[C] [Gm7]
[VERSE]
A [C]small girl is holding a carpenter's hand
Their eyes are looking down on the sa[F]nd
Down on the[C] sand
[VERSE]
[C]Holding a pebble that she's found
He shows her secrets in this jewel from the gro[F]und
This jewel in the[C] ground
[CHORUS]
[G]She sells [Am]shells u[G]pon the sea[C]shore
Things [G]slip through her [C]hands so [G]fast
She [C]won't find lo[F]ve anymore [Bb]
Not find love any [C]more
[VERSE]
[C]The winter's tales in Salem last
The girl's a woman now, the childhood pa[F]st
The childhood's[C] past

[C]She sells her finds to those who'll buy
Lends a hand to those who tr[F]y
To those who[C] try

[VERSE]
[C]Winter's fury throws waves ashore
An unchanged flow of an ancient la[F]w

Millions of years to settle a sco[F]re
They settle a[C] score

He comes to her[C] mind
