Chords for The Red Clay Strays - Drowning (Official Lyric Video)

_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] This life is like [Ab] a battle, _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] one that I [Ab] ain't been.
_ _ [Cm] [Bb] It's like I'm swimming [Ab] against the current, _
_ _ [C] _ [Bb] like I'm running [Ab] against the wind. _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] It's like I'm going [Ab] overboard, _ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] with an anchor around [Ab] my waist.
_ [Cm] I lie [Bb] awake at night, tears in my eyes, [Ab] my heart beating out of my chest.
[Cm] There's no light [Bb] at the end, but it's time that I'm in, [Ab] I'm calling for a nest.
Oh, will somebody help [Cm] me out?
[Bb] Try!
_ [Ab] I can't tread much longer, [C] [Bb] I'm_ Try!
_ [Ab] _
Keep my head above the water, [C] throw [Bb] me a light, show me a sign.
[Ab] Everything will be alright, cause I feel like [Cm] [Bb] I'm_
Try!
_ [Ab] _
Somebody help me out.
[Cm] _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] Try to see the [Ab] world's true color, _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] but they're all just [Ab] shades of gray. _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] And it's only [Ab] getting darker, _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] every [Ab] passing day.
_ _ [Cm] _ [Bb] And the more I [Ab] fake a smile, _ _ [C] _ _ [Bb] the way I'm [Ab] bound to break.
_ [Cm] I've never felt so [Bb] alone, been praying for the [Ab] folks, trying just to hide the pain.
[Cm] It's just a [Bb] matter of time before I can't see the light, [Ab] and I hit my bottom again.
Somebody help [Cm] me out.
[Bb] Try!
_ [Ab] _
I can't tread much longer, [Cm] [Bb] I'm_
Try!
_ [Ab] _
Keep my head above the water, [Cm] throw [Bb] me a light, show me a sign.
[Ab] Everything will be alright, cause I feel like [Cm] [Bb] I'm_
Try!
_ [Ab] _
Somebody help me out.
[F] _ But it goes to show, [Bb] there ain't always a boat [Eb] to [Gm] lean to help [Cm] and hand. _
_ _ [Fm] _ But if I can find just [Bb] one way to stay afloat, _ [Eb] I'll [Gm] find my way [Cm] to shore again.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [F] _ _ Somebody help [Fm] me out.
[Eb] Try!
_ [Ab] _ I can't tread much longer, [Cm] I'm_
[Bb] Try!
_ [Ab] Keep my head above the [Cm] water, throw me a light, [Bb] show me a sign.
[Ab] Everything will be alright, cause I feel like [Cm] I'm_
[Bb] Try!
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [C] Lord, I'm_
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ Lord, [Cm] I'm_
[Bb] Try!
_ [Ab] _ [Cm] Somebody help me out.
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
