Lately I've been feeling so alone
    E                            Ab
Can someone give the antidote to me so I can
Dbm                          A
Finally understand where I belong
    E                              Ab
The world outside to me is like an ocean and I

Pre-chorus:
Dbm
 Can't swim
    A
I'm losing my grip
       E
Caught up in the current
      Ab
Won't drown in this ship
Dbm
 I can't swim
    A
I'm starting to slip
    E                                    Ab
I'm running out of breath, I'm scared to death

I gotta keep my head up up up up

Up above the water, up above the water
              Dbm           A
Gotta keep my head up up up up
                E                  Ab
I'm never going under, never going under
           Dbm
As long as air's in my lungs
A
Blood's in my veins
    E                   Ab
I'm not going down this way
                Dbm           A
I gotta keep my head up up up up
             E                   Ab
Up above the water, up abovе the water

Verse 2:
Dbm                        A
If I hit the bottom will I brеak?
      E                                Ab
Cause I've been there before a million times but I don't
Dbm                              A
Know how much more of this I can take
E
I'm at the surface, what is my purpose?
     Ab
It's making me nervous, I
