[Intro]
Em D C B7
Em D C B7
[verse]
Em D
The river’s on the rise
C B7
?Swift and gentle like the breeze
Em D
It swallows everything but sky
C B7
And suffocates the trees
[chorus]
C G
Here comes the water
Am C B7
Should I struggle or give in?
C G
Does it even matter
Am?
If I sink
C B7 Em
if I sink or swim
Em D C B7
[verse]
Em D
There ain’t no more higher ground
C B7
As far as I can see
Em D?
My heart begins to pound
C B7 Em (walk up to G on root)
It’s getting tough to breathe
[bridge]
G C
Your love is like the ocean
B7 Em G
Beautiful and dangerous
C Em?
A tempting magic potion
Am B7?
And not enough is just too much
[chorus]
C G?
Here comes the water
Am C B7
Should I struggle or give in?
C G
Does it even matter
Am
?If I sink
C B7 Em
if I sink or swim
[outro]
Em D C B7
