G (320003@1)       F (133211@1)       CWhich (x32010@1)I forgot when I started to sink

Drank further away from the shore,

And deeper into the drink



Sat on the bottom of the ocean,

A stern and stubborn rock

Cos your songs remind me of swimming,

But somehow I forgot



I was sinking, now I'm sunk

And I was drinking, now I'm drunk

Cos your songs remind me of swimming,

But somehow I forgot


I tried to remember the chorus,

I can't remember the verse

Cos that song that sent me swimming,

Is now the life jacket that burst



Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor,

Sinking like a siren that can't swim no more

Your songs remind me of swimming,

But I can't swim any more

C (x32010@1)                        GIt (320003@1)started in my chest and ended in my throat

Then I realised I was swimming,

And then I realised I was swimming,

And then I realised I was swimming,

And then I realised I was swimming



Pull me out the water, cold and blue,

I open my eyes and I see that it's you,

So I dive straight back in the ocean



Take a deep breath, tuck the water in my chest

Cross my fingers and hope for the best

Oh, take a deep breath, tuck the water in my chest,

Cross my fingers and hope for the best



Then all of a sudden, I heard a note,

It started in my chest and ended in my throat

And then I realised I was swimming,

And then I realised I was swimming,

And then I realised I was swimming,

And then I realised I was swimming
