Intro: A, A7, D (2x)
verse 1
A A7 D
It's harder than it looks to move through water

First you've got to paddle like a pup
A A7 D
You see yourself; you're sure you're lamb to slaughter
A A7 D
So you take what was pure and muck it up
[Refrão]
Bm A D
But I'll throw my hands up and drag myself through
E A
And I'll kick my feet, cause I've learned to crawl
A7
It's really impressive
D
When I was just drowning
A
I'll crawl
A7 D
Might as well be butterfly
verse 2
I could hold my breath and just stay under
But now there's rings of fire on the lake
Looking back from here, I have to wonder
Just how much did I think that I could take?
[Refrão]
So I'll throw my hands up and drag myself through
And I'll kick my feet, cause I've learned to crawl
It's really impressive
When I was just drowning
I'll crawl
Might as well be butterfly
I'll crawl
It's really impressive
When I was just drowning
I'll crawl
Might as well be butterfly
Bridge
Bm D
Hand over hand over hand
Bm D E
Hand over hand 'til I believe that I can stand
I'll crawl
I'll crawl
It's really impressive
When I was just drowning
I'll crawl
Might as well be butterfly
I'll crawl
It's really impressive
When I was just drowning
I'll crawl
Might as well be butterfly
I'll crawl
