[Intro]
  E    Ax2
[Verse 1]
The ocean is Eheavy
Your current Ais strong
Your pulling me C#mdeeper
Been here all Aalong
Remember the tEime I first saw yoBu
I thought you'd be C#mmine it felt so Agood
One look in your Eeyes and I swear I Bknew
Of your kC#miss, your touch, your loAve
[Chorus]
And I can't bEreatheB  
I'm struggC#mlingA  
My heart's at eEaseB  
Cause I'm drC#mowning
Cause I'm droAwning
In your love
[Verse 2]
It seems like the loves  got it Eall wrong
I thought I would Bfly (no fly, no fly)
And its getting C#mharder the further we fall
But I'm feeling hAigh (so high, so high)
I took all the Elies and played the fBool
I found there's no C#mgetting over Ayou
And all of this Etime I never Bknew
Of your C#mkiss, your touch, your lAove
[Chorus]
And I can't bEreatheB  
I'm struggC#mlingA  
My heart's at eEaseB  
Cause I'm drC#mowning
Cause I'm droAwning
In your love
[Bridge]
Oh, don't you Ebreak my heart now
Don't leave me wanting more
GAive me love, give me someone to hold
EMessing with the stars didn't get us very far, oh nAo, oh no
I'll never Ebreak your heart
Your what I'm looking for
AAll I need is you forever more
EMessing with the stars didn't get us very far, oh nAo, oh no
[Chorus]
And I can't bEreatheB  
I'm strugglC#mingA  
My heart's at eEaseB  
Cause I'm drC#mowning
Cause I'm droAwning
In your love
