verse 1 
G              F 
I believe in miracles 
               C         G 
Cause it's a miracle I'm here 
G                           F 
Guess you could call me spiritual 
        C         G 
Cause physical is fear 

Pre-Chorus 1 
         G               F 
And it's safe to say the storms gone away 
        C                      G 
And I’m dancing on the morning after 
        G                    F 
Yes I'd love to stay, but my home is the other way 
      C                  G 
And I miss the love and laughter 

 
               G 
Something like flying 
           F 
Hard to describe it 
   C                       G 
My God, I'm breathing underwater 
                 G         F 
Something like freedom, freedom 
   C                       G 
My God, I'm breathing underwater 

verse 2 
G              F 
Every moon and every star 
      C                G 
Knows who you are, you know 
G       F 
So ever if gets too dark 
    C         G 
You never are alone 

Pre-Chorus 2 
          G             F 
And it's safe to say we surrendered a day 
   C                         G 
To pay back all the love you borrowed 
    G                  F 
And hope that I had survived yesterday 
      C                      G 
And today is jealous of tomorrow 

 
               G 
Something like flying 
           F 
Hard to describe it 
   C                       G 
My God, I'm breathing underwater 
                 G         F 
Something like freedom, freedom 
   C                       G 
My God, I'm breathing underwater (x3)
