Em   C         G 
Lay my head, under the water 
       Em    C         G  B7          
Lay my head, under the sea 
          Em  C          G    B           
Excuse me sir, am I your daughter? 
          Em            Am               Em            
Won't you take me back, take me back and see? 
              Em    C         G                
There's not a time, for being younger 
        Em    C          G    B7           
And all my friends, are enemies 
         Em  C         G    B             
And if I cried unto my mother 
       Em                Am               Em          
No she wasn't there, she wasn't there for me 
Am                           Em                                            
Don't let the water drag you down (Don't let the water drag you down) 
Am                           Em        
Don't let the water drag you down 
       Em   C         G              
Broken lines, across my mirror 
      Em    C            G             
Show my face, all red and bruised 
             Em                     C             G         B       
And though I screamed and I screamed, well no one came running 
     Em              Am               Em          
No I wasn't saved, I wasn't saved from you 
Am                           Em                                            
Don't let the water drag you down (Don't let the water drag you down) 
Am                           Em            
Don't let the water drag you down 
C                                             Em                
Don't let me drown, don't let me drown in the waves, oh 
C                                         Em           
I could be found, I could be what you had saved 
C, Em, C, Em, C, Em                       
Saved, saved, saved 


(Solo)
 
       Em  C           G          
Lay my head, under the water 
      Em     C      G     B7     
Aloud I pray, for calmer seas 
           Em             C                      G       B            
And when I wake from this dream, with chains all around me 
         Em               Am             Em                     
No, I've never been, I've never been free 
         Em               Am             Em  
No, I've never been, I've never been free 
         Em               Am             Em  
No, I've never been, I've never been free
