Sea I was never into the beaches and all the sands
           G#m7
See, I was in the woods with flowers, rainbows and posies
Bm7                          AM                               G#m7

    I'm gone and I'm finished
                                        G#m7
    And I ain't seen my friends in a minute
                           Bm7
    Guessing nothing lasts forever
AM                      G#m7

    Nothing sticks together
                             F#sus2
    Sick of sitting in doubt
                                  D6/9

[Verse 2]
G#m7
Shout out to the girls that I lead on
AM
For occasional head and always keeping my bed warm
G#m7
And trying their hardest to keep my head on straight
               Bm7                            AM
And keeping me up enough 'til I had thought I was airborne

G#m7
'Cause if that cop got trigger, he better pull
       Bm7                               AM
'Cause when I get pulled over, I usually play it cool
                       BbM
'Cause I know what I'm driving is usually paid in full
                            Eb7
And my ego and possessions, will not let me be one
                            Dm7
Because I got a mansion, my mansion got some rooms
                                   DbM
Them rooms got some windows and my windows got some views
                                  BbM
Them views get some stares and my backyard does too
                                     Eb7
And if you walk to the bottom you'll prolly see a pool
                                Dm7
You better not drown, keep them ten toes up
                                    DbM
'Cause if those ten toes down, that mean that you fucked up
                  BbM
And that's what I swim in

[Outro]
                   Eb7             Dm7
And if I drown and don't come back
            DbM                    BbM
Who's gonna know? (Baby, then I'll know)
                   Eb7             Dm7
And if I drown and don't come back
            DbM                    BbM
Who's gonna know? (Baby, then I'll know)
                   Eb7             Dm7
And if I drown and don't come back
            DbM                    BbM
Who's gonna know? (Baby, then I'll know)
