Hi there.  I'm just providing the chords in this one, but if you want to imitate Carbon 
sound (and who wouldn't?), play a slow arpeggio over the verses and big open chords 
the chorus.
-Erik
[Verse 1]
AI woke up from a dream
A white rose was floating to grGeet      Dthe sAea
MorAning light, race me down 
The wooden path, can't catch me nGow… DMmm   the Asea
AWill you wade with me?
You and me all alone, Gwading oDn the sAea
AI grab your toes and now I understand
The symbol of the rose, it floats on my Ghand Don this great sea Astrand
[Chorus]
                  D                A   Esus–     E  B

                            D          A   Esus– E  
That lures the devil in the deep blue sea
[Verse 2]
AWill you always float here with me?
I don't want to send second-hand Gnotes

You and me all alone, wading on the sea

I grab your toes and now I understand

The symbol of the rose, it floats on my hand on this great sea strand

[Chorus]

D A Esus E B

Hang on to me and I'll hang on to you

D A Esus E B

Until the end or until the day is through

D A Esus E B

And as we float, I'll wash away that part of me

D A Esus E

That lures the devil in the deep blue sea

[Verse 2]

Will you always float here with me?

I don't want to send second-hand notes

To you my friend, about the sea

So we jump back into the party

And we wade out way out past the bar

I had not, I had not planned on going out this far
