[Intro] Dm7 Bb F [Verse 1]
 C/F           Dm7             Bb       F
   I've gotta keep the calm before the storm

C/F   Dm7                           F
   I don't want less, I don't want more

C/F     Dm7              Bb       F
   Must bar the windows and the doors

C/F    Dm7                      F
   To keep me safe, to keep me warm

C/F          Dm7              Bb       F
   Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for

C/F       Dm7                 Bb        F
   Can't part the sea, can't reach the shore

C/F        Dm7                Bb      F
   And my voice becomes the driving force

C/F        Dm7               Bb   F
   I won't let this pull me overboard
[Chorus]
N.C.          Dm7         Bb
God, keep my head above water

               F                C
Don't let me drown, it gets harder

               Dm           Bb
I'll meet you there at the altar

        F                C
As I fall down to my knees

               Dm           Bb
Don't let me drown, drown, drown

               F                           C
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown
[Verse]
C/F    Dm7             Bb     F
   So pull me up from down below

C/F           Dm7             Bb   F
   'Cause I'm underneath the undertow

C/F      Dm7            Bb       F
   Come dry me off and hold me close

C/F   Dm7             Bb        F
   I need you now, I need you most
[Chorus]
N.C.          Dm7         Bb

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

               Dm           Bb
I'll meet you there at the altar

        F                C
As I fall down to my knees

               Dm           Bb
Don't let me drown, drown, drown

               F                           C
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown

               Dm           Bb
Don't let me drown, drown, drown

               F                           C
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown(keep my head above water, above water)
[Bridge]
    Bb    C    Dm         Fsus    F
And I, I can't see in the stormy weather

Bb C7/Bb Dm/A            Fsus   F
I  can't seem to keep it all together

   Bb           C         Dm       Fsus    F
And I, I can't swim the ocean like this forever

   Bb         C
And I can't breathe
[Refrain] N.C. God, keep my head above water N.C. I lose my breath at the bottom N.C. Come rescue me, I'll be waiting
          F               C
I'm too young to fall asleep
[Chorus]
              Dm7         Bb
God, keep my head above water

               F                C
Don't let me drown, it gets harder

               Dm           Bb
I'll meet you there at the altar

        F                C
As I fall down to my knees
[Outro]
               Dm                  Bb
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)

               F                   C
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)

               Dm                  Bb
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)

                     F            C
Keep my head above water, above water
