You gotta swim

Swim for the music
That saves you

To fall off the earth

The currents will pull you
G
Away from your love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Cadd9 G
Begging to tear down the door

Memories like bullets
Cadd9 G
They fired at me from a gun
D Cadd9
Cracking me open now
D
I swim to brighter days
Cadd9 G
In spite of the absence of sun

Choking on salt water
G D Cadd9
I'm not giving in

You gotta swim
