Tabbed by Lance Justice.

I didn't deal much with tab.

[Intro]
Simply descend through the key of D (d c# b a g f# e) through two octaves twice.
Then hit b followed by D in the primary octave.

[Verse 1]
B              D
Throw me a rope,
B             D
Give me a leg.
B              D           B            D    D
I haven't seen daylight in what must be days

B                       D
I took the long way down
B                    D
Lost track of myself
B          D             B           D      D
Confidence fell down the steepest of slopes.

B             D
Give me a line;
B              D
Lend me an oar.
B               D      B          D    D
I'll row you an ocean, I could do more!

B                       D
I feel so much stronger
B                    D
Now that you're here.
   B                 D   B           D          D
We've got so much to do. Let me make that clear.

[Chorus]
   B       D     B                 D
We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules

[Verse 2]
B                        D
I'm breaking the surface,
B                D
Tasting the air.
    B            D           B      D     D
I'm reaching for things like never before.

B                   D
The anchor is heavy,
B                       D
I can't hold the weight;
    B             D       B               D       D
The guilt holds me down - won't let me be myself!

B               D
Suck it all in!
B               D
Suck it all up!
    B       D      B           D   D
Let go of thoughts holding me back!

B                      D
I'll push twice as hard
B                  D
Towards it you see,
        B          D           B             D
And the past falls away to the bottom of the deep.

[Chorus]
   B       D     B                 D
We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules

D

[Chorus]

We win, we lose, only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose, only together do we make the rules

[Outro]
        B           D             Bm         D
When we leave say goodbye to your old way of life.
      B              D             B           D
I can breathe way up high now it's our turn to fly

(Dm) D  B
