B7sus4     C#m                A
It could be worse, I could be alone
           F#m7                 G#m7
I could be locked in here on my own
F#m7      C#m                  A

It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
F#m7      C#m                  A
Or like a light lit up on a beach
                      F#m7
Wear your hear on your sleeve
G#m7
Oh.
B7sus4     C#m                 A

        F#m7                           G#m7
You want to sink when you know you can swim
