Gills And Tails

E                              
I looked at my reflection in the 
       G
water
E                          D
Thought, “What an unlikely pair”
Bm                            
Closed my eyes, held my breath, 
      C                    Bm
plummeted down, down, down
E                       G
And anchored myself there


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                       F
Can't tell how long I've been
Em                 F
In the company of gills and tails
Em                F   G
I think I feel my skin
         C
Growing scales


[Chorus]
              Bm
Can I come up for air?
Em             F
Can I come up, can I come up?
F
Can I come up for air?
Em
Can I come up, can I come up?
Bm
Can I come up for air?
Em
Can I come up, can I come up?
D             Bm
Can I come up for air?
G              F
Can I come up, can I come up?

[Verse 2]
G                         C
I'm getting eaten up down here
Em                 F
I'm just not built like them
   D                  G
The big fish have a monopoly
                  C              
The little fish get buried in the 
   G
sand


[Pre-Chorus]
                 C
This here world I'm in
   G                       F
Sucks your life out, leaves you 
comatose
 Em                   F     G
Take back your salt and fins
          F           Am
Send me a lifeboat


[Chorus]
              Bm
Can I come up for air?
Em             F
Can I come up, can I come up?
F
Can I come up for air?
Em
Can I come up, can I come up?
Bm
Can I come up for air?
Em
Can I come up, can I come up?
D             Bm
Can I come up for air?
G              F
Can I come up, can I come up?


[Bridge]
Am
I look up at longing at the surface
                          G
Hypnotized by the way the sunlight 
seems to ride each ripple
Bm
And they do a dance

Every ray becomes a beckoning hand
              C
I miss the sweet taste of oxygen
  A                     F
I mistook this for the promised land


[Chorus]
              Bm
Can I come up for air?
Em             F
Can I come up, can I come up?
F
Can I come up for air?
Em
Can I come up, can I come up?
Bm
Can I come up for air?
Em
Can I come up, can I come up?
D             Bm
Can I come up for air?
G              F
Can I come up, can I come up?
