My favorite song of all time.
I had trouble hitting the high notes at the end
Enjoy.

Lyrics:

You gotta swim
Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
When you're not so
sure you'll survive
You gotta swim
Swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You haven't come this far
To fall off the earth
The current will pull you
Away from your love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets
They fire at me from a gun
Cracking the armor yeah
I swim for brighter days
Despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in, I swim

You gotta swim
For nights that won't end
Swim for your families
Your lovers your sisters
And brothers and friends
[ Find more Lyrics at www.mp3lyrics.org/3IWD ]
Yeah you gotta swim
For wars without cause
Swim for the lost politicians
Who don't see their
greed is a flaw
The currents will pull us
Away from our love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets
They fire at me from a gun
Cracking the armor now
I swim for brighter days
Despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in
I'm not giving in, I swim

You gotta swim
Swim in the dark
There's no shame in drifting
Feel the tide shifting
away from the spark
Yeah you gotta swim
Don't let yourself sink
Just find the horizon
I promise you it's not as
far as you think
The currents will drag us
away from our love
Just keep your head above
Just keep your head above Swim
Just keep your head above
Swim, swim
Just keep your head above Swim

  • watch your vowels, and try not to sing through your nose as much, you get a bit whiny

  • I can tell that your heart is really in this. That's what most important.

  • do u think you could post the chords in the description box or send them to me or tell me where to find them? thanks.

    ps. this was really amazing and your also really cute ;)

  • Nice nice. Keep at it. I posted my own cover. Go to my page and check it out. I'd like feedback from a fellow musician.

  • @missmusicgeek yeah it's definitely there and makes such a difference! way to go man, those high notes you think you're not hitting are what makes the song sound so great

  • THANK YOU! I was looking for a cover of this with actual passion in the chorus! Found it!

  • Your voice would go well with "Sorry" by buckcherry. My voice doesn't relate to that dudes, i'm more of a Tim, rise against sounding dude.

  • I love your voice! Will you sing for me all the time if I ask nicely? P.s. GREAT song choice.
