Verse

guitar chords

Drink the water drink it down

This time I know I'm bound

 To spit it back up

I didn't want this

Salty substitute, just not going to do

 I need some air, if I'm going to live through

This experience reminds me of a clock

 That just won't tick

I want to wake up

From this concussion

But my dreams just not done

 I'm late again,

 It's just one of those bad days

Look outside and

Be careful what you ride

 You just might find

That you're out of time

 To swim ashore

 If I drift long enough

 I'll be home

(notice that there are two main riffs for the verse

the C#m, G# and F# one and the E, G# and C#m one...

these will be called VERSE part 1 and VERSE part 2

from now onwards)

(repeat INTRO [x2])

(guitar silent)

He's got delusions between his ears

Man it takes up too much space

And all that tension between his gears man

He'll never ever leave this place

(VERSE part 1 pattern begins again play it [x2])

He's got stones instead of bones

And everybody knows

Ah, man that can make you real real slow

And if heaven was below

He'd know just where to go

Dive in the ocean

And he'd sink like a stone

And he'd say

(VERSE part 2 now [x2])

It's time to swim ashore

If I drift long enough

I'll be home

(back to VERSE part 1 [x2])

Hold on if you can

You're gonna sink faster

Than you can imagine so

Hold on if you can

You're gonna sink faster

Than you can imagine so

(VERSE part 2 again [x2])

It's just time to swim ashore

If I drift long enough

I'll be home
