[Intro] G C G D C G [Verse 1]
G                                C               G
Am I in control or out of it, sometimes I don’t know

      D                                         C             G
It’s hard to shake the things that break when life takes its toll

       G                             C               G
So I walked down to the well and I stuck my arm into it

  D                          C                 G
Funny how I wouldn’t drown unless i jumped to do it
[Bridge]
 G                                  Bm
Then I realized the choice is up to me

           C
To pull myself up out from under

   G                                  D
Or be left there to wonder what could be
[Chorus]
      G                        C               G
So I made myself a boat and I rose above the flood

   D                                   C               G
Forgot about retreat, what’s sweet is here and yet to come

           G                      C            G
And I’ll build a moat above the water and the mud

      D                                C             G
The past can’t get to me, I’ll be the one who rose above
G C G D C G [Verse 2]
G                             C             G
Heard they found a girl face down in a riverbed

D                                  C                  G
Sad to know the ones who go stop caring ‘till you’re dead

G                             C              G
So I’ll be the one to float before I take a dive

D                                          C           G
Might have to fight to stay upright but at least I’m alive
[Bridge]
    G                             Bm
And I realized what would set me free

           C
Don’t you wait for them to find you

         G                              D
Leave behind the ones that bind you at sea
[Chorus]
       G                       C               G
So I made myself a boat and I rose above the flood

  D                                    C               G
Forgot about retreat, what’s sweet is here and yet to come

     G                            C            G
And I’ll build a moat above the water and the mud

     D                                 C             G
The past can’t get to me, I’ll be the one who rose above

            C       D     G
Ill be the one who rose above
