The Classic Crime - Who Needs Air Chords

The Classic Crime - Who Needs Air
Tuning: Capo 1

    C						    
I long to taste adventure like the nature of the sea,
             F
Always moving, always hiding all the creatures from beneath.
              C					     
Singing silent songs of sadness my heart waits for its chance,
      F
To dance upon the ashes of my burned up little plans.

Prechorus
        C                              F
And I stand alone before the night.
        C				         F
My nakedness is so clear in the glow of the moonlight.
         Am	      F
Life is old, but so short.
         Am	      F
We are young, we want more.

Chorus
C	          F
I'm drowning, but I don't care,
                 Am
Because when you got what I got, what I got, what I got
	   F
Who needs air?
                 C
I don’t need air.

                 C			        
My addiction to danger like the rush of the sea,
          F
Like a wave on the rocks the lessons crash down on me.
          C				             
I don’t need to prove the world to you only to myself.
      F
So step back and look away as I dive into the swell.

C	             F
I'm drowning, but I don't care,
                 Am
Because when you got what I got, what I got, what I got
	    F			
Who needs air?  


Bridge 
Dm			   Em
Take me down to the river like a little child,
F			     G
Take my hand and tell me it’s okay to be wild.
Dm		               Em
I never knew the world until I saw through your eyes,
F			      G
I never knew myself until I ripped off my disguise.


C	           F
I'm drowning, but I don't care,
                 Am
Because when you got what I got, what I got, what I got
	      F
Who needs air?

Who needs air?
