How To Embrace A Swamp Creature

D5 Dmaj7 Dsus4 D5


[Verse]
D5
Got out of bed
Dmaj7
could not remember my own name
Dsus4
Condemned to walk the soil
D5          A
Amongst all creatures wild and tame
D5
Go where I go
Dmaj7
Do what I must
Dsus4
Crawl starving on my belly
D5     A
Licking up the dry dust


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
I see the light in your window
Em
ride the elevator to the sixth floor
G Asus4 A
Stand with my arms at my sides as you open up the door


[Chorus]
D5 G
But I’m out of my element I can’t breathe
D5 A
I’m out of my element
D5 G D5 G
I can’t breathe


[Verse]
D5
Alone with your bathroom mirror
Dmaj7
Try to get my head straight
Dsus4
Breathe on the glass and wait for it to clear
D5 A
Clean slate
D5
Meet up with you in the kitchen
Dmaj7
Where the air is hot and dry
Dsus4
Open up all the faucets
D5 A
Be fruitful and multiply


[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Em
I stand where the flashing swords gleam
G Asus4 A
And I try to shake my head clear of the dream


[Chorus]
D5 G
But I’m out of my element I can’t breathe
D5 A
I’m out of my element
D5 G D5 G
I can’t breathe


[Bridge]
D5
I start to sweat,
Dmaj7
I can’t cool down
Dsus4
I’m scared of all
D5 A
The strangers in this town
D5
I try to tell you
Dmaj7
Just why I’ve come
Dsus4
It’s like I’ve got
D5 A
Molasses on my tongue


[Chorus]
Bm Em
I made it through town somehow
G Asus4 A
But who’s going to save me now?
D5 G
I’m out of my element I can’t breathe
D5 A
I’m out of my element
D5 G D5 G
I can't breathe
