Verse 1:
E MajorE                   G+G
I looked at my reflection in the water

Thought, “What an unlikely pair”
B minorBm                 C majorC          B minorBm
Closed my eyes, held my breath, plummeted down, down, down
E MajorE            G+G
And anchored myself there

Can't tell how long I've been

Growing scales

The little fish get buried in the sand

This here world I'm in

I look up at longing at the surface
             G+G
Hypnotized by the way the sunlight seems to ride each ripple
B minorBm

I mistook this for the promised land

Can I come up, can I come up?
