verse-1
You gotta swim
(Cadd9) G
Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
(Cadd9) G
When you're not so sure you'll survive
You gotta swim
(Cadd9) G
Swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You haven't come this far
(Cadd9) G
To fall off the earth
The currents will pull you
Away from your love
Just keep your head above
Chorus
I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the door
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim to brighter days
In spite of the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
D (Cadd9) G
You gotta swim
D (Cadd9) G
Verse-2
You gotta swim
(Cadd9) G
Tonight's the moment
Swim for your family
Your mothers your sisters
(Cadd9) G
Your brothers your friends
You gotta swim
(Cadd9) G
For wars without cause
Swim for these lost politicians
(Cadd9) G
Who don't see their greed is a flaw
The currents will pull us
Away from our love
Just keep your head Above
Chorus
I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the door
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim to brighter days
In spite of the Absence of sun
Choking on salt water
G D Cadd9 (D Cadd9)
I'm not giving in
I'm not giving in
D (Cadd9) G
Swim
D (Cadd9) G
Verse-3
You gotta swim
(Cadd9) G
Swim in the dark
There's an ocean to drift in
(Cadd9) G
Feel the tide shifting away from this war
Yeah you gotta swim
(Cadd9) G
Don't let yourself sink
Just follow the horizon
(Cadd9) G
I promise it's not as far as you think
Currents will drag us away from our love
D (Cadd9) G
Just keep your head Above
Ending
Just keep your head Above
D (Cadd9) G
Swim
Just keep your head Above
D (Cadd9) G
Swim
Just keep your head Above
D (Cadd9) G (end on Cadd9)
Swim
