Bm                           D          F#m
I've been falling much more deep than I wanna
Bm                          D           F#m
I've been wishing I could breathe underwater
  Bm
I hold my breath
   D                   F#m
I can't see what comes next
  Bm
I don't know when
      D           F#m
I'll see dry land again

Chorus:
           Bm
Another 40 days, I'm lost at sea
                 D             F#m
I'm just gonna swim until you love me
                 Bm
Hopin' that your heart will rescue me
                 D             F#m
I'm just gonna swim until you love me
Bm
Swim until you love me
D            F#m
Swim, swim, swim
Bm
Swim until you love me
D           F#m
Swim, swim, swim

I've been drowning in these sheets, feeling lonely
Wishing you were here with me, every morning
Over my head
The tide comes rolling in
I don't know when
I'll see dry land again

Chorus

Bm                   D         F#m
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Bm               D     F#m
I will never get over you

Chorus:
Another 40 days, I'm lost at sea
I'm just gonna swim until you love me
Hopin' that your heart will rescue me (Hey, hey)
I’m just gonna swim until you love me (Hey, hey)
Swim until you love me (Hey, hey)
Swim, swim, swim (Hey, hey)
Swim until you love me (Hey, hey)
Swim, swim, swim (Hey, hey)

I will never get over you
