Intro: D F#m | G D
       G G D A | D

Dmaj
I’m fighting too hard to win
G                   D
Back on the ground again,
Dmaj
I feel like giving in
G                    D
But you’re my second wind.

             D
   Don’t you ever tire
   F#m/C# Bm
   Facing all my fires,
   F#m/A   G
   I don’t need no one,
                 Aadd₁₁  A
   But you right now.
   So, I say,

Chorus:
     D
     Oh, my friend,
            G                D
     You’re holding out your hand,
       G               D
     I take it like an oar
     A        G    Gmaj
     From the depths.
     D        F#m
     Hey, lifesaver,
         G              F#m
     I’m drowning in despair,
                G
     But you’re fighting for me
     D       A       G
     Right until the end.
     You pull me back to land
                       D
     And save me once again.

Instrumental: D F#m | G D
              G G D A | D

D           Dmaj   D₆
You help me wash away
G            G^5-         D
The insane mistakes I’ve made.
             Dmaj    D₆
And I see it in your face,
G       G^5-       D
My only source of grace.

               D
   No, I don’t take for granted,
   F#m/C#  Bm
   All the time you’ve wasted
   F#m/A  G                A
   Making sacrifices for a fool.
   So, I say,

Chorus:
     D      F#m
     Oh, my friend,
            G                D
     You’re holding out your hand,
       G               D
     I take it like an oar
     A        G
     From the depths.
     D        F#m
     Hey, lifesaver,
         G              F#m
     I’m drowning in despair,
                G
     But you’re fighting for me
     D       A       G
     Right until the end.
     You pull me back to land
                       D
     And save me once again.

D           F#m
You lift me higher,
G            D
You hold the fire,
G           D       A         D
You make me strong enough to stand.

D           F#m
You lift me higher,
G            D
You hold the fire,
                Em
I may not stand tall,
      G             A
But without you I’d fall.

Chorus:
     D      F#m
     Oh, my friend,
            G                D
     You’re holding out your hand,
       G               D
     I take it like an oar
     A        G
     From the depths.
     D        F#m
     Hey, lifesaver,
         G              F#m
     I’m drowning in despair,
                G
     But you’re fighting for me
     D       A       G
     Right until the end.
     You pull me back to land
                       D
     And save me once again.

D           F#m
You lift me higher,
G            D
You hold the fire,
G           D       A        D
You make me strong enough to stand.
