D         A      D                  G
Your love is like finger nails on a chalkboard
D         A       D               G    
Your love is like throwing myself overboard
D                A
A breakdown on a motorway
Bm               G
A heart attack on Christmas day
E
Like scaling a cliff then falling off

Like trying not to cough

I didn’t see this one coming, now I’m in too deep
G                               D
I think I’ll just keep swimming down, down, down
G                             D 
There’s no point in trying to turn back now

G           D
I’m drowned
G           A
I’m drowned

D         A       D             G
Your love is like sand inside a bathing suit
D         A       D             G
Your love is a symphony with the sound on mute
D               A  
A letter to the wrong address
Bm               G
Or red wine on a wedding dress
E
Like broken bones in my playing hand
G
Like trying to swallow sand

I’m drowned

I’m drowned

Your love is like one last breath of salty air
D         A        D                 G
Your love is like a map that leads to nowhere
D                  A  
A wine glass on a concrete floor
Bm             G
The overuse of metaphor
E
The straight ahead in a sideways glance
G
Like the misstep in a dance

I’m drowned
