Walking In The Shallows

F#m F#m


[Verse 1]
E     B          A     G#m    A
     Oh, I've decided not to try
A                  E
To understand my life
B           A      G#m     A
  Grasp the forces that deny
 A                     E
They grapple with my drive
B        A    G#m     A
Oh, my heart full of pain
      E  B       A   G#m     A    A
So I follow my groin not my brain


[Chorus]
Am          C
On a night like tonight
D
  I'm walking in the shallows
Am             C
Take me out, where it's bright
D
  I'm off the straight and narrow
Bm              Em               Am
Feel alive. So won't you be my girl?
         D
Walking in the shallows
 C                Am            D         D  G
Close your eyes. Hold me tight. Be alright


[Verse 2]
E     B          A     G#m    A
     Oh, I've decided not to try
A                  E
To understand my life
B           A      G#m     A
Cos the wherefores and the whys
A                   E
Play havoc with my mind
B        A    G#m     A
Oh, my heart full of pain
      E  B       A   G#m     A
So I follow my groin not my brain


[Chorus]
Am          C
On a night like tonight
D
  I'm walking in the shallows
Am             C
Take me out, where it's bright
D
  I'm off the straight and narrow
Bm              Em               Am
Feel alive. So won't you be my girl?
         D
Walking in the shallows
 C                Am            D         D  G
Close your eyes. Hold me tight. Be alright


[Middle 8]
          Em               C
I don't want to think I'm bored of time
        Em                C
Spent wasting words on being kind
      G          D            Am   Bm  D
I'd rather be a fool than be cruel


[Chorus]
Am          C
On a night like tonight
D
  I'm walking in the shallows
Am             C
Take me out, where it's bright
D
  I'm off the straight and narrow
Bm              Em               Am
Feel alive. So won't you be my girl?
         D
Walking in the shallows
 C                Am            D      Em F#m G
Close your eyes. Hold me tight. Be alright
