VERSE 1:
Em D C
Marching along, like a good soldier does,
Esus4
I'm setting sail, With anchors holding me down,

Pack up my bags, stow them away (Stow them away),
Esus4
I'm bidding farewell to all that is safe,
CHORUS:
C D
Will I come up for air? come up for air,
Am Em
After a while the current is calling me,
Bm Em
Lulling me, waving goodbye,
Am Em Bm
I'm out here alone, oh God can you save me now?
Sinking, my heart turns to stone,
Em, D, C, Esus4
VERSE 2:
Em D C
Withering away, a shrinking violet dies,

So full of life, these lights have dried me out,

I never thought this would consume me whole,
