Verse 1:
A                       E
   Don't pretend you're sorry
                 F#m
   I know you're not
                        D
   You know you got the power
      E              A
   To make me weak inside
                     E
   Girl you leave me breathless
             F#m          
   But it's okay 'cause
                 D     Dm* (refer below)
   You are my survival
               
Pre-Chorus:
               D
   Now hear me say
              E     F#m
   I can't ima-gine life
                ( E )
   Without your love
D                     E
   Even forever don't seem like long enough
Chorus:
B
   'Cause everytime I breathe
              F#
   I take you in
                       G#m
   And my heart beats again
                E
   Baby I can't help it
               F#               B
   You keep me drowning in your love
                            F#
   Everytime I try to rise above
                     G#m
   I'm swept away by love
                E
   Baby I can't help it
               F#               B
   You keep me drowning in your love

Verse 2:
A              E
   Maybe I'm a drifter
           F#m
   Maybe not
                         D
   'Cause I am only safe here
              E              A
   Of floating freely in your arms
                        E
   I don't need another lover
                F#m
   It's not for me
                            D  Dm* (refer below)
   'Cause only you can save me
Pre-Chorus :
                D
   Oh can't you see
              E     F#m
   I can't ima-gine life
                E
   Without your love
D                         E
   And even forever don't seem like long enough
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
G
   Go on and pull me under
   Bm
   Cover me with dreams, yeah
G
   Love me mouth to mouth now
       F#
   You know I can't resist
                     G#
   'Cause you're the air that I breathe
RAISED Chorus:
C#
   Everytime I breathe
              G#
   I take you in
                       A#m
   And my heart beats again
                F#
   Baby I can't help it
               G#               C#
   You keep me drowning in your love
                            G#
   Everytime I try to rise above
                     A#m
   I'm swept away by love
                F#
   Baby I can't help it
               G#               Db** (refer below)  
   You keep me drowning in your love...
G#  A#m
                F#
   Baby I can't help it
           G#               C#
   Keep me drowning in your love
          G#        
   Got me drowning
                           A#m
   Got me drowning in your love
                F#
   Baby I can't help it
         G#
   Can't help it no, no
