{Intro:} x3
Em      D      G      C
Em      C      D      D


{Verses:}
Em              D                 G               C
Love's chewed a hole in me but it couldn't take my  mind
     Em            C              D                D
The second time I'm blind and my heart's not there

     Em           D            G              C
And time was the second healer running down my  spine
   Em           C                D                D
I see it all the time, oh, your hearts not there


{Chorus:}
C                    G       C                 G
   But your body's clinging     on to what you have
C                      G          Em      D
   When your race is over, I will be gone

C                    G       C                 G
   I can feel us drowning       in the southern air
C                     G       Em      D
   And my heart is screaming "No, No, No, No!"

C                   C
   It's going, gone


{Verses:}
    Em        D            G              C
And life has set in motion what you wanted  most
    Em            C              D             D
I'm running to the coast and I'm staying there

    Em        D               G                C
But time, and all it's ocean, I can't get there  soon
        Em                 C               D            D
All the things she said were true, I'm not going there


{Break:}
    C        Em       G           (D)
If she won't sing for me will she sing for the devil?
C             Em                 D      D
  Then all my love came running back


{Chorus:}
C                    G       C                 G
   I can feel us drowning       in the southern air
C                     G       Em      D
   And my heart is screaming "No, No, No, No!"

C                    G       C                 G
   But your body's clinging     on to what you have
C                      G          Em      D
   When your race is over, I will be gone

C                    G       C                 G
   I can feel us drowning       in the southern air
C                     G       Em      D
   And my heart is screaming "No, No, No, No!"

C                   C
   It's going, gone

Em

Em      C       D       D

C       C

Break:
C       Em      G      (D)

The accurate chords for the verse might be different (G instead of the second Em) if
you want to play it as they do. I would suggest to play the Em as: Em: 022033 
and you may also want to play a D4: xx0233 when the D is repeated.
Capo: Don't use a capo if you want to play like the original song.
But I prefer having a capo on the 5th fret (for example), it's easier for me to sing.
