    E
The faster we're falling
        A
We're stopping and stalling
       E                   A
We're running in circles again
         E
Just as things were looking up
             A
You said it wasn't good enough
      E
But still we're trying
          A
one more time

 E
Maybe we're just
            A
trying too hard
                   E
When really it's closer
                A
than it is too far

Chorus:
          E       A
Cause I'm in too deep
          E         A
And I'm trying to keep
     E           A
Up above in my head
    E        A
Instead of going under
          E       A
Cause I'm in too deep
          E        A
And I'm trying to keep
     E          A
Up above in my head
    E            D
Instead of going under
    A
Instead of going under

E
Seems like each time
    G#m      A
I'm with you I lose my mind
   A         E
Because I'm bending
               G#m   A   G#m A  G#m
over backwards to relate
     E
It's one thing to complain
    G#m
But when you're
  A
driving me insane
      G#m     E
Well then I think it's
         G#m     A  G#m A
time we took a break

 E
Maybe we're just
            A
trying too hard
                   E
When really it's closer
                A
than it is too far

Chorus

    E            D
Instead of going under
    A
Instead of going under

E   F#m       A        B
 I can't sit back and wonder why
E    F#m     A         B
 It took so long for this to die
E      F#m    A         B
 And I hate it when you fake it
E          F#m
 You can't hide it you
 A               B
might as well embrace it
E      F#m     A         B
 So believe me it's not easy
E   F#m
 It seems that
 A
something's telling me

Chorus:
I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under
'Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under
Instead of going under

    E             D
Instead of going under
    A                 E D
Instead of going under
    A            C         E D
Instead of going under again
    A
Instead of going under
    E            D       A  C
Instead of going under again
    E            D       A  C
Instead of going under again
