Intro: G Bm | C G
       C C G D | G

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

             G
   Don’t you ever tire
   Bm/F#  Em
   Facing all my fires,
   Bm/D    C
   I don’t need no one,
                 Dadd₁₁  D
   But you right now.
   So, I say,

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

Instrumental: G Bm | C G
              C C G D | G

G           Gmaj   G₆
You help me wash away
C            C^5-         G
The insane mistakes I’ve made.
             Gmaj    G₆
And I see it in your face,
C       C^5-       G
My only source of grace.

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

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

G           Bm
You lift me higher,
C            G
You hold the fire,
C           G       D         G
You make me strong enough to stand.

G           Bm
You lift me higher,
C            G
You hold the fire,
                Am
I may not stand tall,
      C             D
But without you I’d fall.

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

G           Bm
You lift me higher,
C            G
You hold the fire,
C           G       D        G
You make me strong enough to stand.
