Drowned Chords & Lyrics - Tim Minchin

Capo on the second fret

Intro: [C]

[C]Your love [G]is like[C] finger nails on a [F]chalkboard
[C]Your love [G]is like [C]throwing myself [F]overboard
[C]A breakdown on a [G]motorway
[Am]A heart attack on[F] Christmas day
[D]Like scaling a cliff then falling off
[F]Like trying not to cough

[F]And I didn't see this one coming, now I'm [E]in too deep
[F]I didn't see this one coming, now I'm [E]in too deep
[F]I think I'll just keep swimming [C]down, down, down
[F]There's no point in trying to [C]turn back now

[F]I'm drowned [C]
[F]I'm drowned [G]

[C]Your love [G]is like [C]sand inside a [F]bathing suit
[C]Your love [G]is a sym[C]phony with the[F] sound on mute
[C]A letter to the [G]wrong address
[Am]Or red wine on a [F]wedding dress
[D]Like broken bones in my playing hand
[F]Like trying to swallow sand

[F]And I didn't see this one coming, now I'm [E]in too deep
[F]I didn't see this one coming, now I'm [E]in too deep
[F]I think I'll just keep swimming [C]down, down, down
[F]There's no point in trying to [C]reach dry ground

[F]I'm drowned [C]
[F]I'm drowned [G]

[C]Your love [G]is like o[C]ne last breath of [F]salty air
[C]Your love [G]is like a[C] map that leads to[F] nowhere
[C]A wine glass on a c[G]oncrete floor
[Am]The overuse of [F]metaphor
[D]The straight ahead in a sideways glance
[F]Like the misstep in a dance

[F]And I didn't see this one coming, now I'm [E]in too deep
[F]I didn't see this one coming, now I'm [E]in too deep
[F]I think I'll just keep swimming [C]down
[F]There's no point in turni[C]ng 'round

[F]I'm drowned [C]
[F]I'm drowned [C]
