Swimming Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Ooh[G], ooh[D]
[G]Ooh, [D]ooh, [A]oh, oh, oh
Oo[G]h, [D]ooh, oh, oh, oh, [G]oh, [F#m]oh, oh[E]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
I was [F#m]treading on the [G]beach
Summer un[D]derneath my [Em]feet
Somewhere [F#m]I'd never se[Bm]en
Mama [F#m]led me by the ha[G]nd
'Til the [D]grit stuck with [Em]the damp
And the [F#m]foam fizzed a[G]drift
When we [A]both strode in

[Verse 3]
[Em]I can feel the detritu[A]s lift[Em]ing
And I moved like I [A]knew that
I was free [Em]again
Then before [A]thinking I ventured out

[Verse 4]
[G]Swimming
[F#m]Across [Bm]the sea
[G]The current battles way
[F#m]down b[Bm]elow me
[G]Drifting
But [F#m]holding [E]on
I [A]keep [D]my head up to [E]watch [F#]the shore[G]

[Verse 5]
Ooh, [D]ooh[G]
Ooh, [D]ooh, [A]oh, oh, [G]oh
[D]Ooh, ooh, oh, oh, [G]oh, oh, [F#m]oh, oh[E]

[Verse 6]
[Bm]
After [F#m]many years had p[G]assed
Hoping [D]I would find the p[Em]ath
I ar[F#m]rived at the [Bm]start
In [F#m]the shadow of a [G]cliff
Memories [D]floating in the [Em]wind
I squared [F#m]up to the tid[G]e
On my [A]own this [Em]time

[Verse 7]
I can feel the de[A]tritus [Em]lifting
While a teardrop [A]tickled as it ran [Em]away
But it got [A]lost in the wash I tossed

[Verse 8]
[G]Swimming
[D]Across the sea
I [Em]get the feeling
I [Bm]always [Am]have [D]been

[Verse 9]
[G]Swimming
[F#m]Across [Bm]the sea
[G]The current battles way
[F#m]down b[Bm]elow me
[G]Drifting
But [F#m]holding [E]on
I [A]keep [D]my head up to [E]watch
[F#]the shore

[Verse 10]
