VERSE 1:
A                       E
   Don't pretend you're sorry
                 F#m
   I know you're not
                        D
   You know you got the power
      E              A
   To make me weak inside
                     E
   Girl you leave me breathless
             F#m
   But it's okay 'cause
                 D     Dm* (refer below)
   You are my survival


PRE-CHORUS:

   Now hear me say
              D
   I can't ima-gine life
                A
   Without your love
D                     A                         E
   Even forever don't seem like long enough

CHORUS:
B
   'Cause everytime I breathe
              F#
   I take you in
                       G#m
   And my heart beats again
                E
   Baby I can't help it
               F#               B
   You keep me drowning in your love
                            F#
   Everytime I try to rise above
                     G#m
   I'm swept away by love
                E
   Baby I can't help it
               F#               B
   You keep me drowning in your love

VERSE 2:
A              E
   Maybe I'm a drifter
           F#m
   Late at night
                         D
   'Cause I long for the safety
              E              A
   Of flowing freely in your arms
                        E
   I don't need another lover
                F#m
   It's not for me
                            D  Dm* (refer below)
   'Cause only you can save me

PRE-CHORUS :

   Oh can't you see
              D
   I can't ima-gine life
                A
   Without your love
D                         A                              E
   And even forever don't seem like long enough

G
   Go on and pull me under

   'Cause you're the air that I breathe

                            Ab
   Everytime I try to rise above

   Baby I can't help it
               Ab               Db** (refer below)
   You keep me drowning in your love...



Ab  Bbm

                F#
   Baby I can't help it
           Ab               Db

          Ab
   Got me drowning
                           Bbm

Repeat RAISED CHORUS


* you may play Dm but preferably play it like this

e|-----------|
b|--3--5--6--|
g|-----------|
d|--0--2--3--|
a|-----------|
E|-----------|


 you may play Db but it is not really advisable. Play it like this then
(pluck it as hard as possible):

e|--------------|
b|--2--4--6--7--|
g|--------------|
d|-----1--3--4--|
a|--4-----------|
E|--------------|


Then proceed to Ab major.
