capo 1 — sounds a semitone higher

Verse 1

I have this sinking feeling
Something's weighing me down
I am completely saturated
The waves are crashing closer
My feet already drowned
Doing the thing I said I hated

Pre-Chorus

They've been swimming in the wrong waters
Now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know that you'll lift me out

Chorus

Have your way here
Keep me afloat
'cos I know I'll sink without you
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline

Verse 2

Wake up feeling convicted
I know something's not right
Re-acquaint my knees with the carpet
I have to get this out
'Cos it's obstructing you and I
Dry up the seas that keep us parted

Pre-Chorus

'Cos they've been swimming in the wrong waters
Now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go
'Cos I know that you are gonna pull me out

Chorus

Have your way here
Keep me afloat
'cos I know I'll sink without you
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline
(single strums)
They've been swimming in the wrong waters, now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to you, never letting go 'cos I knooow...
'cos I know...yeeah....that you'll..

Chorus

..have your way here, keep me afloat 'cos I know I'll sink without you
Take this ocean of pain that is mine.... 
Am Em G D Am D N.C.
Take this ocean of pain that is mine... throw me a lifeline
