Am                     Dm              Am
Andrea and me, we went swimming last Monday
Dm            Am               E    Am
Swimming last Monday in a community pool
Am                      Dm          Am
I refused to remove my suit in the shower
            Dm             Am      E           Am     
Scared that someone might see the scars on my soul
           Dm            Am
That this autumn left on me
Am                              Dm        Am
A community swimming pool, it's like a society
       Dm              Am                 E            Am
Twenty people swimming in a line, making room for everyone
         Dm           Am
We work hard to get along
         Dm                     Am
And then he comes along, the crawler
                Dm                Am
He doesn't see anyone else, the crawler
                    Dm                         C       E
He jumps in in the middle lane and waves his crawling arms
           Am        Dm            C                E
Visibly damaging the swimming quality for everyone else
       Am                    Dm
The crawler believes because he knows crawling
            C                  E
He gets to crawl over everyone else
Am                             Dm
"People who breaststroke and can't keep up
             C                   E
They should start crawling themselves"
               Am
So says the crawler
Am                      Dm          Am
Andrea and me, we swam after each other
Dm          Am             E       Am
After each other in the community pool
Am                             Dm   Am
I'm not good at talking while exercising
       Dm              Am      E          Am
If you say something funny, Andrea, I'll drown
    Dm                    Am
My arms in the water get number and number
      Dm              Am
For every second here I grow stronger
         Dm              Am         Dm          E
We're in a line, twenty people, we try to get along
               E    Am
I love how we get along
Dm                               Am
But the crawler keeps crawling, forcing the water
          Dm                 Am
Building forts of waves that hit our faces
      Dm               Am
Us twenty, we gather around the crawler
    Dm                  E
We push his face under water
E
And we wait
    Am            E            Am
We wait for the waves to slow down
