[Verse 1:]
Em (022000@1)             D (xx0232@1)  BThere's (x2444x@1)a sea of lonely,
Swimming sad,
Em (022000@1)    D (xx0232@1)     BLooking (x2444x@1)just for
An arm to grab.
Em (022000@1)     D (xx0232@1)    B (x2444x@1)   
I don't need to
Understand.
Em (022000@1)     D (xx0232@1)        BI'm (x2444x@1)just lending you
The two that I have.

             C (x32010@1)  GYou (320003@1)might be drifting
    E (022100@1)            DAnd (xx0232@1)can't find the shore,
   C (x32010@1) GSo (320003@1)Hopeless
    Em (022000@1)  DAnd (xx0232@1)all alone.
              C (x32010@1)  GThe (320003@1)waves are crashing
Em (022000@1)  DAll (xx0232@1)around you.
C (x32010@1)              G (320003@1)              DJust (xx0232@1)when you've lost the will to live
You see the sun.

[Verse 2:]
Can we make a searchlight
From all the bridges that we burn?
Do you see a rescue
Or a deeper kind of hurt?
Who could love you?
Who could hold you?
I'd swim across the sea.
You don't have to be alone
Where the shallow gets so deep.

[Chorus:]
You might be drifting
And can't find the shore,
So Hopeless
And all alone.
The waves are crashing
All around you.
Just when you've lost the will to live
You see the sun.

[Bridge:]
CI (x32010@1)am hurt and nearly drown.
Open up your eyes.
DI (xx0232@1)cry for help. You turn around.
Open up your eyes.
EmFarther (022000@1)from the shore,
             AOr (x02220@1)you'll be farther from the shore.
CI (x32010@1)am hurt and nearly drown.
You're not alone.
DI (xx0232@1)cry for help. You turn around.
I'm not letting go.
EmFarther (022000@1)from the shore,
So you're not
AFarther (x02220@1)from the shore.

[Chorus:]
You might be drifting
And can't find the shore,
So Hopeless
And all alone.
The waves are crashing
All around you.
Just when you've lost the will to live
You see the sun.
