Chords

I like to use a capo on 5th and use G C D and Em But this works well with standard open chords. [Intro] C F G [Verse 1]
C
I've been trying to tell you

C
But I just don't have the words

F                         G
Love is not an ocean or a panicking bird

     C
It's dancing and beating the drum

F                                 G
Staring down the sights along the barrel of a gun

         F                  G
Less the parts and more the sum
[Chorus]
C                        F
So hold your breath underwater

            G                C
'Til you're strong enough to swim

                       F
Past the edge, so much farther

     G             C
Than you have ever been
C [Verse 2]
C
Call me, call me by my name

F                           G
Heaven knows that I've been carrying the shame

   C
Of trying, but never hard enough

F                      G
Always folded when the dealer called my bluff, I

F                       G
Always wanted something better

F             G
Always out of reach, so I'll
[Chorus]
C                    F
Hold my breath underwater

         G                 C
'Til I'm strong enough to swim

                       F
Past the edge, so much farther

     G           C
Than I have ever been

C                       F
I confess I'm scared of drowning

G
Just like I've always been

Am           G              F
But all of this is meaningless

G                   Am
If I'm afraid of diving in
Am G F G Am G F G
C                        F
So hold your breath underwater

            G                C
'Til you're strong enough to swim

                       F
Past the edge, so much farther

     G             C
Than you have ever been

C                       F
I confess I'm scared of drowning

G
Just like I've always been

Am           G            F
But all of this is meaningless

G                C
If I'm afraid of diving in
C
