The Water

	  		

 


Intro: Asus2  Fm7/5b (2x)


Asus2         Fm7/5b 
Innocent, they swim 

             Asus2 
I tell them 'no' 

                   Fm7/5b 
They just dive right in 

                G 
But do they know? 




       Em       F 
It's a long way down 

            G 
When you're alone 

              Em      F 
And there's no air or sound 

     G      (pause) 
Down below the surface 




Am      G               C 
There's something in the water 

Em            F 
I do not feel safe 

   G                 C 
It always feels like torture 

   E       Am 
To be this close 

  G               C 
I wish that I was stronger 

    Em           F 
I'd separate the waves 

G                C 
Not just let the water 

E 
Take me away

Asus2                    Fm7/5b 
There was a time I'd dip my feet 

Asus2                   Fm7/5b 
And it would roll off my skin 

Asus2                    Fm7/5b 
Now every time I get close to the edge 

Asus2                Fm7/5b 
I'm scared of falling in 


              G       Em        F 
'Cause I don't want to be stranded again 

       G 
On my own 

         Em         F 
When the tide comes in 

             G      (pause) 
And pulls me below the surface 



Am      G               C 
There's something in the water 

Em            F 
I do not feel safe 

   G                 C 
It always feels like torture 

   E        Am 
To be this close 

  G               C 
I wish that I was stronger 

    Em           F 
I'd separate the waves 

G                C 
Not just let the water 

E 
Take me away
