Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Wel[F#m]l I've[G] be[A]en [D]liv[F#m]ing[G][A][D]
in a dream that I can't wake up from
Swimming up stream I can't
get to [G]the sea
Where the fish [D]swim free

[Verse 2]
[D]And staring at a screen that I don't
get much from
Staring so long,
can't see wood from the [G]trees
Or the birds [D]from the bees
[F#m]And half of the time well it

[Verse 3]
[F#m]
flies right by
Like child[G]hood did
In the blink of [D]an eye
[A]And half of the time, well it goes so slow
I sit [G]outside and watch the grass

[Interlude 1]
grow
[D][F#m][G][A][D][F#m][G][A]
Well [D]I've been running on a

[Verse 4]
[D]treadmill,
legs like lead
Will there ever be a needle
for this thread
I've been [G]weaving since I was [D]born?

[Verse 5]
And the papers read and the [D]government
said
I should stay in bed to stop the
virus spread
I won't be [G]leaving for so [D]long
[F#m]Well some

[Verse 6]
nights I feel okay,
I [G]close my eyes and I drift [D]away
[A]Some nights I just lay
and stare at the ceil[G]ing
Like it's gonna go somewhere
[D][F#m][G]

[Verse 7]
[A]Swimming up[D]
[F#m]stream[G][A]
Swimming [D]up [F#m]stream
[G][A]

[Verse 8]
[Em]Oh and I keep swimming but I go no[A]where
[F#]It's all the same when
I come [Bm]up for ai[G]r
And I just can't get [A]there
[D][F#m]

[Verse 9]
[G]
[A]Swimming up str[D]eam[F#m][G][A]
Swimming up [D]stream[F#m][G]
[A]Swimming up [D]stream[F#m]
[G]Stream
[A][D]
