[Intro] C Cmaj7 Fadd2 C Cmaj7 Fadd2 [Verse 1]
          Cmaj7                Fsus2
You gotta swim, swim for your life

            Cmaj7                                                    Fsus2
Swim for the music that saves you when you're not so sure you'll survive

          Cmaj7                   Fsus2
You gotta swim, and swim when it hurts

                   Am7                                                   Fsus2
The whole world is watching, you haven't come this far to fall off the Earth

     G                                     F   Fmaj7
The currents will pull you away from your love, just keep your head above
[Chorus]
C                     G                        Dm7
I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn

 C                           G                 Dm7    Am7
Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun, cracking the armor, yeah

C                         G                     Dm7   Am7
I swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun, choking on salt water

Fsus2     C          G      C  Cmaj7  Fadd2
     I'm not giving in, I swim
C Cmaj7 Fadd2 [Verse 2]
          Cmaj7                           Fsus2
You gotta swim through nights that won't end

              Cmaj7                                                  Fsus2
Swim for your families, your lovers, your sisters and brothers and friends

               Cmaj7                   Fsus2
Yeah, you gotta swim for wars without cause

             Am7                                              Fsus2
Swim for the lost politicians who don't see their greed as a flaw

     G                                   F    Fmaj7
The currents will pull us away from our love, just keep your head above
[Chorus]
C                     G                        Dm7
I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn

 C                           G                 Dm7    Am7
Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun, cracking the armor, yeah

C                         G                     Dm7   Am7
I swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun, choking on salt water

Fsus2    C         G   Fsus2    C         G        Fsus2   C   G
    I'm not giving in...   I'm not giving in... I swim  (Guitar solo)
Fsus2 C G [Verse 3]
           C                Fsus2
You gotta swim, swim in the dark

                     Am7                                               Fsus2
There's no shame in drifting, feel the tide shifting and wait for the spark

                 C                        Fsus2
Yeah, you gotta swim, don't let yourself sink

                Am7                                          Fsus2
Just find the horizon, I promise you it's not as far as you think

     G                                  Fsus2
The currents will drag us away from our love, just keep your head above
[Outro]
C  Cmaj7  Fadd2                             C  Cmaj7  Fadd2
               Just keep your head above, swim

                             C  Cmaj7  Fadd2
Just keep your head above, swim,      swim

                             C  Cmaj7  Fadd2
Just keep your head above, swim
