(you could make variations on the bass of these chords, playing the main riff -
it's a too simple tab so I won't transcript... too boring doing these things)
   
                    
I know you're in the sun
                                
I know you're close to everyone
                                              
  At times it's like you don't have a hold on me

                
I see you in the love
                      
I see you in the moon above
                                                         
   But I want to know that you're not lost inside of me

      
              You know I need you
      
              You know I love you
      
              If I'm not with you
                     
I'm not so much of a man
                       
I'm like a fish on the sand

                  
You call me in the night (you call me in the night)
                    
And hide behind the daylight
                                                 
   You're blowing like a wind, you don't let me see

                 
You know I feel a pain (you know I feel a pain)
                      
I'm tired of playing games with you
                                                          
    Though there's nothing else I want that would set me free

      
              You know I love you
      
              You know I need you
      
              If I can't be with you

                    
I'm not so much of a man
                   
I'm a fish on the sand

      I can't believe you'd want to see me crying

                
I hold you in my heart (hold you in my heart)
                     
I know that you're a part of me
                                                 
   But it's a must to know that you love me too

                 
I look you in the eye (look you in the eye)
                     
You're swimming by my teardrops
                                                       
   But I want to know for sure that you'll let me see

      
              You know I want you
      
              You know I need you
      
              If I'm not with you
                    
I'm not so much of a man
                       
I'm like a fish on the sand

      
              You know I need you
      
              You know I love you
      
              If I'm not with you
                    
I'm not so much of a man
                         
I'm like a fish on the sand

                 
Not so much of a man
                     
More a fish on the sand
