Those lost at sea and never found

And it's the same the whole world 'round
    Bbmaj7 
The hurt    I see helps to compound

That Father, Son and Holy Ghost
   Bb
Is just somebody's unholy hoax
    Dm
And if you're up there you'd perceive

That my      heart's here upon my sleeve
   G
If there's one thing I don't believe in

Biography

XTC was a rock band from Swindon, England led by Andy Partridge (guitars, vocals) and Colin Moulding (bass, vocals). Active between the late 1970s and the mid 2000s, XTC’s music ranged from jerky new wave/punk riffs to lushly-arranged progressive pop. They also drew heavily from vintage pop rock and psychedelia from the 1960s, genres which they began to explore more deeply after creating The Dukes of Stratosphear side-project. While XTC failed to maintain significant commercial success after the 1980s
