Standard Tuning - Capo 1

Chords - < > are hammered-on twice during the chord
         [ ] are pulled off to open the string for last strum of chord

(relative to capo)

----C---F---G---Am---

e|--0---1---3---0---|
B|--1---1---0---1---|
G|--0--(2)--0---2---|
D|---3---0---2---|
A|--3---3---2-------|
E|----------3-------|


The into and verse strum pattern are the same - there is a hammer
on and off on the D string during the C chord twice to get that 
note change, and the G string is opened at the end of the F chord.

Listen to the song and mess around with hammering during the 
C chord and opening the F chord and you will get it!

This time it's sink or swim, sink or swim



Hearing the song in your laughter
A melody I chase after
No one else has done this to me

Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
Are we going down or will we fly?
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
Or we could sail away forevermore
This time it's sink or swim, sink or swim

Bridge:
FTake (133211@1)a deep breath
No more time left
This is what I thought I wanted
Why am I afraid?

Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
Are we going down or will we fly?
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
Or we could sail away forevermore

Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
Are we going down or will we fly?
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
Or we could sail away forevermore
This time it's sink or swim, sink or swim
