[verse]
Em                 D
The river’s on the rise
C                         B7

Swift and gentle like the breeze
Em                         D
It swallows everything but sky
C                   B7
And suffocates the trees


[chorus]
C              G
Here comes the water
Am                    C   B7
Should I struggle or give in?
C             G
Does it even matter
Am

If I sink
C          B7 Em
if I sink or swim

Em  D  C  B7

[verse]
Em                         D
There ain’t no more higher ground
C                B7
As far as I can see
Em                   D

My heart begins to pound
C                     B7             Em (walk up to G on root)
It’s getting tough to breathe

[bridge]
G                      C
Your love is like the ocean
B7            Em      G
Beautiful and dangerous
C                 Em

A tempting magic potion
      Am          B7

And not enough is just too much

[chorus]

C               G

Here comes the water
Am                   C     B7
Should I struggle or give in?
C            G
Does it even matter
     Am

If I sink
   C       B7  Em
if I sink or swim
