Chords

[Intro] Am F G Cmaj7/E x2
 Am   G          Em
Rain Rain on my face

  Am    G          Em
It hasn't stopped raining for days

Am      G       Em
My world is a flood

 Am    G            Em
Slowly I become one with the mud
[Chorus]
       Am       G          Em
But if I can't swim after forty days

        Am      G               Em
And my mind is crushed by the crashing waves

       Am    G            Em
lift me up so high that I cannot fall

        Am       G          Em
lift me up

        Am    F        G         Em
lift me up - when I am falling

        Am    F              G    Em
lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying

        Am    F        G        Em
lift me up - I need you to hold me

        Am    F       G      Em
lift me up - keep me from dying again
Am G Em x2
 Am   G          Em
Down pour on my soul

 Am   G          Em
splashing in the ocean - I'm losing control

Am    G         Em
Dark sky all around

 Am   G          Em
can't feel my feet touching the ground

   Am       G          Em
But if I can't swim after forty days

        Am      G               Em
And my mind is crushed by the crashing waves

       Am    G            Em
lift me up so high that I cannot fall

        Am       G          Em
lift me up

        Am    F        G         Em
lift me up - when I am falling

        Am    F               G    Em
lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying

        Am    F        G        Em
lift me up - I need you to hold me

        Am    F       G      Em
lift me up - keep me from dying again

Am        F           G         Em
Calm the storms that drench my eyes

Am          F          G         Em
So dry the steams still flowing

Am        F            G        Em
Casting down waves and sin and gilt over flowing

 Am       G          Em
But if I can't swim after forty days

        Am      G               Em
And my mind is crushed by the crashing waves

       Am    G            Em
lift me up so high that I cannot fall

        Am       G          Em
lift me up

        Am    F        G         Em
lift me up - when I am falling

        Am    F               G    Em
lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying

        Am    F        G        Em
lift me up - I need you to hold me

        Am    F       G      Em
lift me up - keep me from dying again
