Verse 1:

D                   A
I nearly died, when you jumped in

    D                G      A         D
But you had to drown before you could swim

D                                      Bm         A
All the people on the beach, they were so impressed

          D
That they wanted to join you

             Bm         A
But no, they wouldn't undress

   D                G            A
Or let that wetness splash their skin

        D                                A
So they pray for a whirlpool to pull you in

Chorus:

D      G  A   D   G A   D   G A D  G A
Ya Ho!     Ya Ho!    Ya Ho!

Verse 2:

D                             G           A
So they looked away, and they tried to pretend

        D                      Bm         D
That it was for you, but no it wasn't for them

       D                   G      A
So the fear of sinking remains in place

         D                            Bm      A
But it's the fear of failure that's a real disgrace


Chorus:

   D   G  A     D   G  A
Ya Ho! yo yo Ya Ho, yo yo

D
Let me be the one

G             A
Let me be the one

D
Let me be the one

G             A
Let me be the one



   D             G A
To get over your wall

   D             G A
To get over your wall

Solo:
D G A D F# Bm F# D Bm D G D

Verse 3:

D                 A
Head in the sand, sea out of reach

D                 G     A
Swept away by the games of the beach

                 D   G       A
Those people sat and watched your stand

A
And the weight of their fears

D           A
Pulled them underground

     D                     G                A
Will anyone learn from the stories that are told

       D                        Bm       E
Of the tribe who drowned in the grave of gold

Chorus:

   D   G  A     D   G  A
Ya Ho! yo yo Ya Ho, yo yo

D
Let me be the one

G             A
Let me be the one

D
Let me be the one

G             A
Let me be the one

Outro:

       D                  G           A
Take a too long look with eyes bright wide

   D                     G       A
To face those fears from which I hide

   D   G
