Verse 1:
        Bb                       F/Bb
I spend most my days alone here, staring at my phone
  Bb
Remembering you
Ab/Bb Cm7                              Ebm/F
Now I lay with all my shame, trying to dance away the pain
            Gm
'Cause I've drowned the truth
         Bb
I try to pray away the rain here
F/Bb                      Bb
Cursing at the waves, I'm bound to lose
   Ab/Bb   Cm7                    Ebm/F
If I don't find the girl again, I try but I can't mend
  Gm
I had to choose

Chorus:
      Bb                      F/Bb
These chains make a beautiful sound
Bb
But look here what I've found

I'm underwater, I'm underwater

        Gm                          Gm#7
I'm the things I never said and our memories that bled

I fight with you
        Cm7                 D7                 Gm
Now I'm who I wanna be, not who I really am to tell the truth

Chorus:
      Gm                      Gm#7
These chains make a beautiful sound
    Gm7                 C9
But look here what I've found

I'm underwater, I'm underwater

As I lift my head today, the wind takes me away and I felt like you
        Cm7                     D7
Resting deep inside my chest, I just put you to rest
    Gm
I'm back with you
         Gm                             Gm#7                     Gm7        C9
And if I just call out your name, we'll always be the same 'cause I am you
            Cm7                     D/F#
And now I'm dancing in the rain and I can't feel the pain
  Gm
I told the truth

Chorus:
      Bb                      F/Bb
These chains make a beautiful sound
Bb
But look here what I've found
Ab/Bb    Cm7    Ebm/F        Gm
I'm underwater, oh, I'm underwater
    Bb                      F/Bb
Our chains made a beautiful sound
Bb
But look here what I've found
Ab/Bb    Cm7   Ebm/F     Gm
I'm underwater, I'm underwater
      Bb                      F/Bb
These chains made a beautiful sound
Bb
But look here what I've found
