"She Swims" by Beyond the Boroughs
Verse 1
[Esus4] [E]
Have you SEEN her in the water ... in the DARKness of the night.
[Esus4] [E]
You WERE not meant to see her ... She ALWAYS tries to hide.
[A] [E]
But if you stayed LONG enough ... and the MOON shed on his light
[A] [E]
You'd see a GLIMPSE of her ... THROUGH the waves she glides.
Chorus
[F#m] [A]
She swims in the RIVER ... to MAKE her feel herself
[F#m] [A] [E]
The cold makes her SHIVER ... trembling,trembling in the water's sweell.
Verse 2
[Esus4] [E]
And when she dives INTO the waves ... she DROWNS out the world.
[Esus4] [E]
She leaves behind what IRRItates ... she leaves behind what HURTS.
[A] [E]
And when she stays DOWN in the dark, ... she wonders what would BE.
[A] [E]
If she refuses to COOOME up ... down here she feels FREE.
Chorus
[F#m] [A]
She swims in the RIVER ... to MAKE her feel herself
[F#m] [A] [E]
The cold makes her SHIVER ... trembling,trembling in the water's sweell.
Bridge
[G#m] [A]
We all wish sometimes to wash down our SINS.
[G#m] [A]
We all wish sometimes you would CARE.
[G#m] [A]
We all wish sometimes that it matters MORE
[E]
... if you're not THEEERE.
Verse 3
[Esus4] [E]
But toDAY she hesitates ... you could SEE it in her eyes.
[Esus4] [E]
It looks as if she WANTS to sing ... the MOON a last goodbye.
[A] [E]
And then she glides INTO the waves ... and FILLS her lungs with air
[A] [E]
Gives HERself a last stroke ... and DROWNS in her despair.
Chorus
[F#m] [A]
She swam in the RIVER ... to MAKE her feel herself
[F#m] [A] [E]
The waves take her BODY ... and TAKE her, take-her-somewhere eeeeelse.
