Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F][Gsus4]

[Verse 1]
I've been trying [C]to
tell you
But I just don't have the words
[F]Love is not an ocean or [G]a panicking bird
It's [C]dancing and beating the drum
[F]Staring down the sights along
the bar[G]rel of a gun
Less the [F]parts and more [G]the [C]sum
So hold your breath [F]underwater
Till you're [Gsus4]strong enough to[C] swim
Past the edge, so much [F]farther
Than [Gsus4]you have ever been[C][F][Gsus4]
Call [C]me
Call [F]me by [C]my [F]name
Heaven knows that I've been
car[G]rying the shame
Of [C]trying but never hard [F]enough
Always folded when the
deal[G]er called my bluff
[F]I always wanted something
[Gsus4]bet ter[G][F]
Always out [G]of [Gsus4]reach
So [G]I'll [C]hold my breath
Underwa[F]ter till I'm [Gsus4]strong
enough [C]to swim
Past the edge, so much [F]farther
[Gsus4]Than I have ever be[C]en
I confess I'm scared [G]of [F]drowning
[Gsus4]Just like I've alwa[G]ys been[Am]
But all of [G]this is [F]meaningless
If I'm [Gsus4]afraid of di[G]ving
[Am]in[F][Am][F]
[G][C]
Hold your breath [F]underwater
Till you're [Gsus4]strong en[G]ough to[C] swim
Past the edge, so much [F]farther
[Gsus4]Than you [G]have ever [C]been
I confess I'm scared of [F]drowning
[Gsus4]Just like I've alwa[G]ys been[Am]
But all of [G]this [Gsus4]is meaningless[G]
[F]If I'm afr[Gsus4]aid of divin[G]g in[C]

[Outro 1]
