Strum
D-DU-UDU
At  least come join  me
 Within the belly of the big blue beast.
 Set asail, catch a breeze,
 And come on
 Don't forget  to fill your suitcase.
 Now watch it sink,
 Cause where we're going we don't need a thing.
 Not a map, or a seed,
 Cause where we've been is who we used to be.
 We started wrapping our regrets in cloth
 Are you defined by all the things you want...
 Or did you get caught
 Up in the things that we are not?
 You were born  to believe you can't get lost,
 So when you run, you always get too far.
 Now there's nothing you haven't seen.
 But where we're headed we have never been,
 Past the pavement that we used to walk,
 Past the people that we used to know.
 Now come on, go
 Past the people that had broke our hearts.
 We started laughing at them from afar.
 But now we've climbed too far without a rope.
 Now come on, go
 No we're not swans,
 Nor are we as ugly as we think  we are.
 We don't take to compliments but please  don't stop
 Now come on,  come  on,
 We are not  swans
 We fit into eachother, we are russian  dolls,
 Where somewhere in the centre sits a beating  heart.
 But come on,  come  on,
 We are not swans.
 Now do you feel we've gone too far
 Or do you feel we've reached the top
 Or do you feel like letting go
 Now come on, hold  on,
 We are not  swans,
 Nor are we as ugly as we think  we are.
 We have fallen fast, but we aren't falling  far
 Now come on,  come on,
 We are not swans,
 Our fathers gave us features that we didn't  want,
 Our mothers claim those features made them fall  in love,
 But come on,  come on,
 We are  swans.
 We are flying higher than our counterparts.
 We have got eachother I'd say that's  enough.
 Now come on,
 come on,
 come on.

[D]  [A]  [D]  [A]

[D]At least come joi[A]n me
Within the belly of the big blue bea[D]st.
Set asail, catch a b[A]reeze,

And come on

Don't forg[D]et to fill your suitcase.
Now watch it [A]sink,
Cause where we're going we don't need a th[D]ing.
Not a map, or a [A]seed,

Cause where we've been is who we used to be[G].
We started wrapping our regrets in cl[A]oth
Are you defined by all the things you w[G]ant...
Or did you get ca[A]ught
Up in the things that we are n[D]ot?

[A]  [D]  [A]

You were b[D]orn to believe you can't get [A]lost,
So when you run, you always get too f[D]ar.
Now there's nothing you haven't s[A]een.

But where we're headed we have never b[G]een,
Past the pavement that we used to w[A]alk,
Past the people that we used to k[G]now.
Now come on, [A]go
Past the people that had broke our he[G]arts.
We started laughing at them from a[A]far.
But now we've climbed too far without a r[G]ope.
Now come on, [A]go

No we're not [D]swans,
Nor are we as ugly as we th[G]ink we are.
We don't take to compliments but pl[D]ease don't stop
Now come on[A], come[G] on,
We are n[D]ot swans
We fit into eachother, we are ru[G]ssian dolls,
Where somewhere in the centre sits a bea[D]ting heart.
But come on[A], come[G] on,
We are not s[D]wans.

[A]  [D]  [A]

Now do you feel we've gone too f[G]ar
Or do you feel we've reached the t[A]op
Or do you feel like letting [G]go
Now come on, ho[A]ld on,

We are no[D]t swans,
Nor are we as ugly as we th[G]ink we are.
We have fallen fast, but we aren't fa[D]lling far
Now come on[A], come [G]on,
We are not [D]swans,
Our fathers gave us features that we d[G]idn't want,
Our mothers claim those features made them f[D]all in love,
But come on[A], come o[G]n,
We ar[D]e swans.
We are flying higher than our coun[G]terparts.
We have got eachother I'd say th[D]at's enough.
Now come o[A]n,
come o[G]n,
come o[D]n.
