Am                     Dm              Am
Andrea and me, we went swimming last Monday
Dm            Am               E    Am
Swimming last Monday in a community pool
Am                      Dm          Am
I refused to remove my suit in the shower
            Dm             Am      E           Am     
Scared that someone might see the scars on my soul
           Dm            Am
That this autumn left on me


Am                              Dm        Am
A community swimming pool, it's like a society
       Dm              Am                 E            Am
Twenty people swimming in a line, making room for everyone
         Dm           Am
We work hard to get along


[Bridge]
         Dm                     Am
And then he comes along, the crawler
                Dm                Am
He doesn't see anyone else, the crawler
                    Dm                         C       E
He jumps in in the middle lane and waves his crawling arms


[Chorus]
           Am        Dm            C                E
Visibly damaging the swimming quality for everyone else
       Am                    Dm
The crawler believes because he knows crawling
            C                  E
He gets to crawl over everyone else
Am                             Dm
"People who breaststroke and can't keep up
             C                   E
They should start crawling themselves"
               Am
So says the crawler


[Verse]
Am                      Dm          Am
Andrea and me, we swam after each other
Dm          Am             E       Am
After each other in the community pool
Am                             Dm   Am
I'm not good at talking while exercising
       Dm              Am      E          Am
If you say something funny, Andrea, I'll drown
    Dm                    Am
My arms in the water get number and number
      Dm              Am
For every second here I grow stronger
         Dm              Am         Dm          E
We're in a line, twenty people, we try to get along
               E    Am
I love how we get along


[Bridge]
Dm                               Am
But the crawler keeps crawling, forcing the water
          Dm                 Am
Building forts of waves that hit our faces
      Dm               Am
Us twenty, we gather around the crawler
    Dm                  E
We push his face under water
E
And we wait
    Am            E            Am
We wait for the waves to slow down x6
