Tom: Em Intro: Em Verse 1: Em The water was getting higher and higher My arms kept getting more and more tired Am And the harder I would try, the further I would dive down Em So I gave up and I finally let go Stop trying to save myself and be my own hero Am And when I opened my eyes, that's when I realized You were there the whole time Chorus: C B I've got a lifeline Em G Waiting for me, ready to save C B Lifeline Em G This is gonna be my escape C B Lifeline Em D C B Never giving up on me You are my lifeline Verse 2: Em I thought that I was too far gone to be rescued But it seems I underestimated You Am It's nothing to You, it's too much for me It's over my head, but it's under Your feet Chorus (1x) Bridge: (Slow Down) Em Lifeline I thought it was over I thought I was through Then I saw You and I knew C B (This is gonna be my escape) Em Lifeline I thought it was over I thought I was through Then I saw You and I knew C D (This is gonna be my escape) Chorus (2x) (Speed Back Up) Ending: Em
