Intro
A Bm D
[Verse 1]
A Bm
Dancing around in this parkade alone
D
And it feels weird cause nothing feels more like my home
A
I followed my dreams
Bm
And I hit a dead end
D
And it hurts cause I thought
That I was my best friend
A Bm
Tip toe tip toe hear the echo
D
I bring my toes to the edge
A Bm
Just like they do on the swimming team
D
I can't keep drowning in my head
[Chorus]
A Bm
Oh backstroke backstroke uh-huh
D
Can I go back to when I was young
A
If I knew the things that I know now
Bm
I'd find a way to change this all somehow
D
But i never was much good on the swimming team
[Bridge]
A Bm D
[Verse 2]
A
Oh I'm dancing around
Bm
And I can't feel my face
D
I'm confined by these walls
Soon I'll have so much space
A
Cause I followed my dreams
Bm
'til I ran out of breath
D
They told me sink or swim
Maybe sinking is best
[Chorus]
A Bm
Oh backstroke backstroke uh-hu-u-uh
D
Can I go back to when I was young
A
If I knew the things that I know now
Bm
I'd find a way to change this all somehow
D
But I never was much good on the swimming team
A Bm
Oh backstroke backstroke uh-huh
D Dmaj7
Can I go back to when I was young
A
If I knew the things that I know now
Bm
I'd find a way to change this all somehow
D
But I never was much good on the swimming team
