 You could play this or just tap a beat on your guitar instead.

[Verse 1]
Am                  Cmaj7/G
  I am a fire under wind
                   Bm7/F#
I am a lion deep within
                            Fmaj7
I don't want you to slow me down
                          G
I don't want you to stall me
Am                                Cmaj7/G
  You got claws, scratch away at me
                                     Bm7/F#
Rag doll, fall down, make a meal of me
                            Fmaj7
I am the sand, you are the sea

You are all of me, you drown me

[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7      Am         C      Fmaj7
I cannot breathe, I cannot breathe
    Am                       C   Fmaj7
Sometimes I get a little bit overwhelmed
           Am           C           Fmaj7
Then I can see, that my heart still beats
      Bm7/F#            Fmaj7                      Am
I got nothing but power, I'll strike you like lightning

[Chorus]
                Cmaj7/G           C   Fmaj7
Take it to the heart, and wash it out
                     C              Dm
Go back to the start, it's raging now
                     Am          Cmaj7/G Fmaj7
Be a better fighter, lover, oh please
                    Bm7/F#   Fmaj7
I don't want you to break me down

[Post-Chorus]
 Am
(Mm, no, oh, oh)
 Cmaj7/G
(Mm, no, oh, oh)
 Fmaj7
(Mm, no, oh, oh)
                    Bm7/F#   Fmaj7
I don't want you to break me down (no, oh)

[Verse 2]
Am                           Cmaj7/G
  Condemn me down to burning shores
                              Bm7/F#
You think I ain't been here before
                                   Fmaj7
I've been here way more times than you
                      G
Could ever dream to fathom
Am                              Cmaj7/G
  You want more, get away from me
                                    Bm7/F#
I don't need you, goodness sake, I mean
                                    Fmaj7
How could you think you stand over me?

I'm alive now, electric

[Pre-Chorus]
Fmaj7      Am         C      Fmaj7
I cannot breathe, I cannot breathe
    Am                       C   Fmaj7
Sometimes I get a little bit overwhelmed
           Am           C           Fmaj7
Then I can see, that my heart still beats
      Bm7/F#            Fmaj7                      Am
I got nothing but power, I'll strike you like lightning

[Chorus]
                Cmaj7/G           C   Fmaj7
Take it to the heart, and wash it out
                     C              Dm
Go back to the start, it's raging now
                     Am          Cmaj7/G Fmaj7
Be a better fighter, lover, oh please
                    Bm7/F#   Fmaj7
I don't want you to break me down

[Bridge]
Fmaj7          Am7                 Am/C
Oh I rise up babe, I got you inside
                     Cmaj7/G                    C
You never wanted me to feel like I'm worth your time
Fmaj7                      Am7                    Am/C
 Caught up in game after game but I am getting tired
                           Cmaj7/G
You're on me just like a snake, ready to take my life
Fmaj7                      Am7
We gotta let this go, it's all over baby
Am/C                          G
Oh, wanna let you know I've strengthened over time
Fmaj7                         Am7
Us, like we never learned how to be seperated
Am/C                       Cmaj7/G
Oh, wanna let you know I'm driftin' with the tide

[Chorus]
                Cmaj7/G           C   Fmaj7
Take it to the heart, and wash it out
                     C              Dm
Go back to the start, it's raging now
                     Am          Cmaj7/G Fmaj7
Be a better fighter, lover, oh please
                    Bm7/F#   Fmaj7
I don't want you to break me down

[Chorus]
                Cmaj7/G           C   Fmaj7
Take it to the heart, and wash it out
                     C              Dm
Go back to the start, it's raging now
                     Am          Cmaj7/G Fmaj7
Be a better fighter, lover, oh please
                    Bm7/F#   Fmaj7
I don't want you to break me down

[Post-Chorus]
 Am
(Mm, no, oh, oh)
 Cmaj7/G
(Mm, no, oh, oh)
 Fmaj7
