Bm G Don’t you know the world is water? A You can’t just float on it. B Can’t skim it, G Afraid to swim it. A E A No, you can’t just stay on land. B G Somehow, you gotta break that water, A Kick and pull through it. B You cross each length G With stride and strength, B You pace the course G With even force, A E A Your hand in front of hand, You go Bm G A Stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke. You go Bm G A D Stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke. B G So meet me at the touch of water— A D And take some laps with me. B Some free, some test, G With our back and breast, B We’ll keep our style G Through the millionth mile, Bm E A And when it’s more than we can stand, We’ll go Bm G A Stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke. We’ll go Bm G A Stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke. C G A Let others walk around an ocean, C G D Let others try to build a bridge across. Bb D Bb D But you and me, we fall in, fall in, F D Never sure we’ll survive. G D But we’ll find out how deep, G Learn the secrets they keep D G At the bottom where we arrive. Em Now, let’s jump. Let’s jump! G We’ll never know we’re alive A ‘Till we jump, till we dive…! And we go Bm G A Stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke! Yeah, we go Bm G A Stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke by stroke C G D By stro-oh-oke! Bm Em G So meet me at the touch of water— A And take the swim with me… This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
