Swimming With The Crocodiles

Am G F G Am

[Verse 1]
Am
Take the bandage off his eyes
         G                       F    G Am
Take the bandage off and then go down
Dm                Am
Swimming with the crocodiles
         C                   G     F
Spinning round and round and round

[Chorus]
G    Dm  Am       Gbm C       G    F
Only I   know I'm bet-ter off this way
G   Dm Am                     G        F   G Am
The wa-ter's still the safest place to stay

[Verse 2]
        Dm               Am
They're sinking in their teeth tonight
      Dm             G                  F     G Am
I can feel them move beneath me with no sound
Am
Swimming with the crocodiles
         C                   G     F
Spinning round and round and round

[Chorus]
G    Dm  Am              G        F   G
Only I   know I'm better off this way
Dm    Am    Dm          F    G        F    G Am
The water's still the safest place to stay

[Bridge]
                G    Dm
You're all I've ever wanted
               Am
And there's no remedy
C                              Am          Dm G Am
I feel you when there's no one else around
               G          Dm      Am
Hold me like a child, you swollen crocodiles
G                     Dm
Hold me under until I drown
E                 Am
Then pull me down.
     Dm                    Am
Just tell me what you came for

[Verse 3]
                      G                F    G Am
Just tell me what you can and what you can't
 Am
'Cause honey I might be a while -
Dm            C          F     G
Honey I might be a while longer

[Chorus]
         Dm  Am      Gbm  C       G    F
And only I   know I'm bet-ter off this way
Dm    Am    Dm          F    G        F    G Am
The water's still the safest place to stay

[Bridge]
                G    Dm
You're all I've ever wanted
               Am
And there's no remedy
C                              Am          Dm G Am
I feel you when there's no one else around
               G          Dm      Am
Hold me like a child, you swollen crocodiles
G                     Dm
Hold me under until I drown
E
Then pull me down.
