Verse 1:
            C#m               A
It could be worse, I could be alone
           F#m7                  Abm7
I could be locked in here on my own
          C#m                  A
Or like a stone that certainly drops
         F#m7   Abm7
It never stops, No.
B          C#m                 A 
I could be lost, or I could be saved
        F#m7                    Abm7
Calling out from beneath the waves
       C#m                  A
Beaten down by the sloshing rain
      F#m7            Abm7   B
Never again, Never again


Chorus:
C#m       F#m7        Abm7
Ooh   -   Ooh    -    Ooh

Ooh   -   Ooh    -    Ooh
C#m       F#m7        Abm7 
Ooh   -   Ooh    -    Ooh
        F#m7                   Abm7
Skating out from the crests of waves

Verse 2: 
            C#m             A
It could be worse, It's all sweet
             F#m7                       Abm7 
You could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
       C#m               A
Like a light lit up on a beach
                      F#m7    Abm7  
Where your heart your sleeve, Oh
B           C#m             A  
You want to stop before you begin
            F#m7                         Abm7
You want to sink when you know you could swim
            C#m                  A
You want to stop just before you begin
           F#m7           Abm7    B
Never give in, Never give in


Chorus:
C#m       F#m7        Abm7
Ooh   -   Ooh    -    Ooh
C#m       F#m7        Abm7
Ooh   -   Ooh    -    Ooh
C#m       F#m7        Abm7 
Ooh   -   Ooh    -    Ooh
        F#m7                   Abm7
Skating out from the crests of waves

Nothing matters

Except life and the love we make

Except life and the love we make
A
Nothing matters

        F#m7                       Abm7
Skating out from the crests of the waves

Your longing to be saved
          F#m7                       Abm7
Screaming out from the crests of the waves
     F#m7           Abm7
Your longing to be saved
          F#m7                       Abm7
Screaming out from the crests of the waves.


Enjoy. :)
