[Verse 1]
Bm7
  Keep watch
Bm                              Gmaj7   F#
  With eyes that that skim the seas
Bm                             Gmaj7    A
  Shores lost, drifting like a leaf
Bm7                          Gmaj7
  Whole down right before my eyes
Dmaj7        F#m
  Endless blue
    Gmaj7
Endless night

[Chorus]
              Gmaj7           Bm7
You've got to hurt before you heal
              A
You’ve got to earn a heart of steel
F#m           Gmaj7                Bm7
You've got to float before you learn
      F#m D
To swim

[Vers3e ]
           F#m           Gmaj7
I was only trying not to sink
Bm                  A
I was only trying

[Verse 4]
Bm
  Three days
Am               Gmaj7    A
Not a breathe of wind
Bm
  First rays
           Am  Gmaj7      A
Sitting on my   skin
Bm                   Bm            Gmaj7
  Fly love something deeper than I think

        F#m
Push me out
       G
Pull me in

[Chorus]
              Gmaj7           Bm7

You’ve got to earn a heart of steel

To swim

[Verse 5]
           F#m           Gmaj7
I was only trying not to sink
Bm                  A
I was only trying

I was only trying not to sink
Bm                  A
I was only trying

Fm       Gmaj7            Bm
   And I watch my guiding star
      A              F#m
As it plunges to the dark
Fm               Gmaj7           Bm
   I should have thrown my heavy heart
             A
To break the water
         G
Break my fall

[Chorus]
              Bm
You've got to hurt before you heal
              A
You've got to earn a heart of steel
              G       D           Bm
You've got to float before you learn
      A
To swim

[Outro]
               F#m
And I was only trying not
  G               Bm
To laugh before I cry
              A
You've got to live before you die
F#m           G
You've got to float
            Bm         A
Before you learn to swim

           F#m           Gmaj7
I was only trying not to sink
Bm                  A
I was only trying

I was only trying not to sink
Bm                  A
I was only trying

I was only trying not to sink
