Intro      
         Am 
When the more I try 
     F 
The more you make it worse 
    C 
My head is underwater 
G 
Everything's a blur 
           Am 
'Cause the more I fight 
     F 
The more you make it hurt 
            C 
and to the sound of thunder 
   G 
I spiral down to Earth 

Verse 
Am                      F 
  Shadow, a silhouette 
                         C 
I feel lost without you 
                             G 
Your throat like a cigarette 
                              Am 
But I can't leave your cloud 
                      F 
Fell in far too deep 
                   C 
I'll surely drown 
                   G 
Falling, Falling, 
               Am 
I spiral down 
               F 
I spiral down 
                 C 
I can't do this 
                 G 
I can't do this 

         Am 
When the more I try 
     F 
The more you make it worse 
    C 
My head is underwater 
G 
Everything's a blur 
           Am 
'Cause the more I fight 
     F 
The more you make it hurt 
            C 
and to the sound of thunder 
   G 
I spiral down to Earth 

Verse  
Am                           F 
   Hailstorms and hurricanes 
                         C 
I can't face the drought 
                       G 
floodlights illuminate 
                   Am 
all I wish is now 
                         F 
for a moment I see clear 
                    C 
I'm no longer bound 
                       G 
soaring to you walking 
                   
then I spiral down 
Am     F 
(down) 
               C 
I spiral down 
       G 
(down)  

Bridge  
Am                           F 
All is not fair in love and war 
                               C 
You shoot me down and cut the core 

I can't do this 
G 
no, I can't do this 

         Am 
When the more I try 
     F 
The more you make it worse 
    C 
My head is underwater 
G 
Everything's a blur 
           Am 
'Cause the more I fight 
     F 
The more you make it hurt 
            C 
and to the sound of thunder 
   G 
I spiral down to Earth 

Outro 
               Am   F   C 
You've taken hold 
G 
so is it any wonder 

I spiral down to Earth 
        Am    F   C 
Lost control 
G 
and to the sound of thunder I spiral down to Earth
