Intro: Asus2 Fm7/5b (2x)
Asus2 Fm7/5b
Innocent, they swim
Asus2
I tell them 'no'
Fm7/5b
They just dive right in
G
But do they know?
Em F
It's a long way down
G
When you're alone
Em F
And there's no air or sound
G (pause)
Down below the surface
Am G C
There's something in the water
Em F
I do not feel safe
G C
It always feels like torture
E Am
To be this close
G C
I wish that I was stronger
Em F
I'd separate the waves
G C
Not just let the water
E
Take me away
Asus2 Fm7/5b
Asus2 Fm7/5b
There was a time I'd dip my feet
Asus2 Fm7/5b
And it would roll off my skin
Asus2 Fm7/5b
Now every time I get close to the edge
Asus2 Fm7/5b
I'm scared of falling in
G Em F
'Cause I don't want to be stranded again
G
On my own
Em F
When the tide comes in
G (pause)
And pulls me below the surface
Am G C
There's something in the water
Em F
I do not feel safe
G C
It always feels like torture
E Am
To be this close
G C
I wish that I was stronger
Em F
I'd separate the waves
G C
Not just let the water
E
Take me away
