  			verse 1  
B              D   
Throw me a rope,   
B             D  
Give me a leg.  
B              D           B            D    D  
I haven't seen daylight in what must be days  

B                       D  
I took the long way down  
B                    D  
Lost track of myself  
B          D             B           D      D  
Confidence fell down the steepest of slopes.  

B             D  
Give me a line;  
B              D  
Lend me an oar.  
B               D      B          D    D  
I'll row you an ocean, I could do more!  

B                       D  
I feel so much stronger  
B                    D  
Now that you're here.  
   B                 D   B           D          D  
We've got so much to do. Let me make that clear.  

   B       D     B                 D             
We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules  
We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules  

verse 2  
B                        D  
I'm breaking the surface,   
B                D  
Tasting the air.  
    B            D           B      D     D    
I'm reaching for things like never before.  

B                   D  
The anchor is heavy,   
B                       D  
I can't hold the weight;   
    B             D       B               D       D  
The guilt holds me down - won't let me be myself!  

B               D  
Suck it all in!  
B               D  
Suck it all up!  
    B       D      B           D   D        
Let go of thoughts holding me back!  

B                      D  
I'll push twice as hard   
B                  D  
Towards it you see,  
        B          D           B             D             
And the past falls away to the bottom of the deep.  

  
   B       D     B                 D             
We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules  
We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules

   B       D     B                 D             
We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules  
We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules  

Outro  
        B           D             Bm         D     
When we leave say goodbye to your old way of life.  
      B              D             B           D  
I can breathe way up high now it's our turn to fly  

(Dm) D  B
