D A Looking up from underneath, fractured moonlight on the sea, F#m E Reflections still look the same to me, as before I went under. And it's peaceful in the deep Cathedral where you cannot breathe No need to pray, no need to speak Now I am under all D Oh and it's breaking over me, F#m a thousand miles down to the sea E D Bed, I found a place to rest my head Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go Chorus: A E F#m D And the arms of the ocean are carrying me, A E F#m D And all this devotion was rushing out of me, F#m E F#m D And the crashes are heaven for a sinner like me, A E F#m But the arms of the ocean delivered me. Though the pressure's hard to take It's the only way I can escape It seems a heavy choice to make And now I am under, oh And it's breaking over me A thousand miles down to the seabed Found the place to rest my head Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go Chorus C#m D F#m E And it's over, and I'm going under, C#m D F#m E But I'm not giving up, I'm just giving in, C#m D F#m E Whoaaa, slipping underneath, C#m D F#m E ooooo, so cold but so sweet. Chorus: And the arms of the ocean, so sweet and so cold And all this devotion I never knew at all And the crashes are heaven for a sinner released And the arms of the ocean delivered me Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go Delivered me Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go (Delivered me) Never let me go, never let me go Never let me go, never let me go (Delivered me) Never let me go, never let me go And it's over and I'm going under But I'm not giving up, I'm just giving in I'm slipping underneath So cold and so sweet You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA ![]() C#m ![]() D ![]() E ![]() F#m ![]() Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
