[Verse 1]
D A
you’re watching everything you ever held on to
slip away from you
D A
and all you’re running from well it’s catching up to you
[Pre-Chorus]
G
got you looking for a lifeline
Bm
swimming in the high tide
G
waiting for the daylight
A G
to bring you home
[Chorus]
D D/F#
the world is too big to never ask why
Bm G A
the answers don’t fall straight out of the sky
D D/F#
I’m fighting to live and feel alive
Bm G A
but I can’t feel a thing without you by my side
G A
send me out a lifeline
