Can't Swim JCL


June 2011               




[B]Can't swim [A]away on the [B]bottom [E]


[B]When I'm [A]holding you [E]down


[B]Fighting for [A]your last [B]breath[E]


[B]You won't [A]make a [E]sound




Can't drink from the broken bottle


Your lips are stitched shut


How will you pour your guts out


When theres no one to trust




[B]Strip [A]down and [B]swim [A]away


[B]Away [A]from the [E]shore


[B]Kneel [A]down and [B]crawl [A]away


[B]Away [A]from the [E]door





Can't listen to or hear the sound


With your hands on your ears


Have my hand over your mouth


The other one wipes your tears




Can't tell how long the clocks been gone


Theres nothing on the wall


You need to get away from here


Whether you swim or crawl




Strip down and swim away


Away from the shore


Kneel down and crawl away

Away from the door




Who is more foolish, the boy afraid of the dark...or the man afraid of the light?

Hi stealstrings
The lyrics to your song are intriguing something to do with the dark side of love maybe?
Thanks for sharing.

Without music life would be a mistake.
Country music is three chords and the truth.

Re: Can't Swim

Hi Stealstrings,
Sounds like a very conflicted relationship. Hopefully it's not too close to home for you.
Look forwards to hearing a recording.

Cheers
Ken

Strange that there are two steelstrings. Maybe check with the admin on that one.
