[Intro]
F# E B F#
[Verse 1]
F# E
In the school yard when I was a kid
E B
I gave everyone my address
B
Said come on over
F#
And it turns out that nobody did
E B
Swimming alone's how I spent my eighth birthday
F# E
And sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
B F#
I never got out of the water even though I did
[Chorus]
F# E
Sometimes it feels like everyone’s looking at the surface
B
And it's not happening on purpose
A G#m F#
But they're taking things for granted again
[Instrumental]
F# E B F#
[Verse 2]
F# E
I’m learning to write my wrongs
E B
And speak up when I feel like I'm not being listened to
F# A
But some story entered my bones
E
When I was far too young to know not to listen to
F#
What people say
E
'Cause everybody's feeling the pressure
B F#
Of a world that keeps trying to end us everyday
[Chorus]
F# E
Sometimes it feels like everyone's looking at the surface
B
And it's not happening on purpose
A G#m F#
But they're taking things for granted again
[Instrumental]
F# E B F#
F# E B F#
[Outro]
F# E
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
B F#
I never got out of the water even though I did
F# E
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
B F#
I never got out of the water even though I did
F# E
Sometimes it feels like this world's got nothing for me
B F#
Getting blank stares in return for what I give
F# E
Sometimes I feel a thousand eyes looking down at the surface
B
And they’re watching me drown on purpose
A G#m
Oh, they’re taking things for granted again
