Pushing Against The Current Ukulele chords by Loxley Locksmith

Chords with lyrics

  • Difficulty: Beginner
Key: Am

Verse 1:
Am
If I stop moving
 F
I think I might drown
  Am            G
I'd sink to the floor of the sea



Am
Water on all sides
    F
Weight pulling me down
    Am              G7
But at least pushing forward's still me, and

Chorus 1:
C F
Ohhh
 Am            G
I can't bear to give up on me
    C F
'Cause ohhh
  Am             G
One day I could live, not just be

  Am
And forward is hard
  F
But backwards is worse
     Dm              G7
When you hear the depths calling your name

  C F
So ohhh
Am           G
I'll just keep moving today

C F Am G

Verse 2:
  Am
The air here is heavy
   F
I forgot how to breathe
    Am           G
And I'm not even sure my heart pumps

  Am
But you say I'll get there
   F
I'll see what you see
    Am              G7
So I'll count breaths until that day comes

Chorus 2:
  C F
And ohhh
 Am            G
I can't bear to give up on me
    C F
'Cause ohhh
    Am             G
You say one day I'll live, not just be

  Am
And forward is hard
  F
But backwards is worse
   Dm            G7
And I feel hope when I see your face

  C F
So ohhh
Am           G
I'll just keep moving today

C F Am G

Bridge:
 Am*
I feel myself waver
 F*
I wobble and slow
  Am*
You say I'll get better
  F*
But how could you know?

    Am*   Am*
And the water is cold here
 F*      F*
I think I'll go numb
    Am*      Am*
What if that makes me forget
    F*      F*
What it feels like to run?

    Am       Am*
And you say that you're here
    F        F*
And you say that you're strong
    Am      Am*
But how could you put up
     F     F*
I've been gasping so long

   Am
And I feel my strength fading
  F
I'm sinking too far
   Am
And I promise I'm trying
  F
But fuck it's so hard

   Am*
And I think this is goodbye
 F*
I think that I'm done
    Am*
But you ask me to stay
  F*
You ask me to stay
  Am*
You ask me to stay
  F*
You ask me to stay
  N.C.
You ask me to stay, so

Chorus 3:
C F
Ohhh
     Am          G
I'm gonna try not to give up today
    C F
'Cause ohhh
     Am           G
This sunk cost is more than I can pay

  Am
And forward's so hard
  F
But losing is worse
    Dm           G7
And I'm sure no matter what you say

   C F
If I drown
   Am         G  F
I'll have only myself to blame
