Noah Gundersen - Swim Chords

[Intro]
C
 
[Verse 1]
C
I've been trying to tell you
      F                   C
But I just don't have the words
F                         G
Love is not an ocean or a panicking bird
     C
It's dancing and beating the drum
F                                 G
Staring down the sights along the barrel of a gun
         F                  G
Less the parts and more the sum
 
{Chorus]
C                        F
So hold your breath underwater
            G                C
'Til you're strong enough to swim
                       F
Past the edge, so much farther
     G             C
Than you have ever been

[Verse 2]
C
Call me, call me by my name
F                           G
Heaven knows that I've been carrying the shame
   C
Of trying, but never hard enough
F                      G
Always folded when the dealer called my bluff, I
F                       C
Always wanted something better
F             G
Always out of reach, so I'll
 
[Chorus]
C                    F
Hold my breath underwater
         G                 C
'Til I'm strong enough to swim
                       F
Past the edge, so much farther
     G           C
Than I have ever been
C                       F
I confess I'm scared of drowning
G
Just like I've always been
C                         F
But all of this is meaningless
G                F
If I'm afraid of diving in
 
C                        F
So hold your breath underwater
            G                C
'Til you're strong enough to swim
                       F
Past the edge, so much farther
     G             C
Than you have ever been
C                       F
I confess I'm scared of drowning
G
Just like I've always been
C                         F
But all of this is meaningless
G                F
If I'm afraid of diving in
