F until he was on the C brink of ex G7 tinction.
C But little did he know that G7 living in the sea below
F another volcano was C listening to his G7 song.
C Every day she heard his G7 tune. Her lava grew and grew

F looking all around but she C could not see G7 him.
C He tried to sing to let her know that G7 she was not there alone,
