N.C.
Now I see I can't save myself
N.C.
I believed I was stronger than I felt

It's the Gmsame old story
It's the sEbame sad song
Where did DmI go wFrong?

Lay me dEbown in the wGmaves
Let the Bbwater wash aFway
And if I Ebleave with the Gmtide
In the Bbmorning I will Dmrise
So lEbay me down
Don't lFift me out
Let me drownGm

Take a Gmbreath
Hold it Ebin and sink beneatBbhF
