Intro:

Cm  A#  G#    Cm  A#  G#     Cm 


Verse 1:
     A#                  G#        Cm 
This life feels like a battle
A#           G#          Cm 
One that I can't win
              A#                     G#        Cm 
It's like I'm swimmin' against the current
         A#                    G#     Cm 
Like I'm runnin' against the wind
              A#          G#      Cm 
It's like I'm going overboard
        A#                 G# 
With an anchor 'round my waist
       Cm                  A# 
I lie awake at night with tears in my eyes
   G# 
My heart beatin' out of my chest
           Cm                        A# 
There's no light at the end of this tunnel I'm in
    G# 
I'm callin' for an SOS

Chorus:
                     Cm  A#    G# 
Somebody help me I'm
drownin'
                             Cm  A#    G# 
I can't tread much longer I'm
fightin'
G# 
To keep my head above water
Cm                     A# 
Throw me a line, show me a sign
G# 
Everything'll be alright
                      Cm  A#    G# 
'Cause I feel like I'm
drownin'
                     Cm  A#  G#     Cm  A#  G#    Cm 
Somebody help me out


Verse 2:
         A#                   G#         Cm 
I try to see thе world's true colors
            A#                   G#     Cm 
But they're all just shadеs of gray
         A#             G#       Cm 
And it's only getting duller
A#              G#    Cm 
Every passing day
               A#       G#      Cm 
And the more I fake a smile
    A#                  G# 
The more I'm bound to break
           Cm                  A# 
I've never felt so alone in a crowd full of folks
    G# 
I'm tryin' just to hide the pain
            Cm                     A# 
It's just a matter of time 'til I can't see the light
      G# 
And I hit rock bottom again


Chorus:
                     Cm  A#    G# 
Somebody help me I'm
drownin'
                             Cm  A#    G# 
I can't tread much longer I'm
fightin'
G# 
To keep my head above water
Cm                     A# 
Throw me a line, show me a sign
G# 
Everything'll be alright
                      Cm  A#    G# 
'Cause I feel like I'm
drownin'
G# 
Somebody help me out


Bridge:
Fm 
 But it goes to show
                          D# 
There ain't always a boat
   Gm              Cm 
To lend a helpin' hand
Fm                       A#                       D# 
 But if I can find just one way to stay afloat
     Gm                   Cm         Gm 
I'll find my way back to shore again

fightin'
