[Verse 1]
C#m
    Counting days, counting days
                         A       E
Since my love up and got lost on me
C#m
  An' every breath that I've been takin'
          B                 A        E
Since you left feels like a waste on me
C#m
   I've been holdin' on to hope
                 G#m               A         E
That you'll come back when you can find some peace
C#m
  'Cause every word that I've heard spoken
          B                  A      E
Since you left feels like a hollow street
[Pre-Chorus]
A
  I've been told, I've been told to get you off my mind
C#m                            B                            A
  But I hope I never lose the bruises that you left behind
                                         C#m  G#m
Oh my lord, oh my lord, I need you by my side
[Chorus]
                               A  C#m
There must be somethin' in the water
                             G#m  A
'Cause every day it's gettin' colder
                    B    C#m
And if only I could hold you
                              G#m A
You'd keep my head from goin' under
[Verse 2]
C#m                             B
  Maybe I, maybe I'm just being blinded
       A        E
By the brighter side
C#m
  Of what we had because it's over
            B                 A      E
Well, there must be something in the tide
[Pre-Chorus]
A
  I've been told, I've been told to get you off my mind
C#m                            B                            A
  But I hope I never lose the bruises that you left behind
                                         C#m  G#m
Oh my lord, oh my lord, I need you by my side
[Chorus]
                               A  C#m
There must be somethin' in the water
                             G#m  A
'Cause every day it's gettin' colder
                    B    C#m
And if only I could hold you
                              G#m A
You'd keep my head from goin' under

Even though I'm nothing to you now
[Chorus]
                               A  C#m
There must be somethin' in the water
                             G#m  A

And if only I could hold you

You'd keep my head from goin' under
                               A  C#m

'Cause every day it's gettin' colder
                    B    C#m
And if only I could hold you
