We Should Be Swimming

Based on an acoustic performance for a Dutch radio-station( http://www.youtube.com/
watch?v=M-y3yN52zEU ), also saw them performing live. First time I'm tabbing a
song, it sounds good to me this way.. Feel free to correct anything that sounds
off :) Also couldn't find the right lyrics, so it is quite possible that they are
a tad bit off. (I'm certain they are off).

G#m
oh me oh my
E
how large a desire
B
to run from the streets in only our sheets
C#m
kicking our shoes off and playing in the heat
G#m
I would watch a bead of sweat drip down
E
tracing the curves of yourself frown
B                        C#m
forward for win or forward for war


E
Because we should be swimming
G#m
Going long into the night as if we were different
C#m
We Should be swimming
E
Oh we should be swimming
G#m
Going long into the night as if we were different
B                       C#m
We should be swimming

G#m
Oh me oh my
E
i'm feverish with this life
B
stumbling through hoops tripping over these loops
C#m
pushed by the pen and forced by the boots
G#m
so I look to you for some release
E
touched things aside in such a peace
B                            C#m
boozing your hand so hard i squeeze

E
Because we should be swimming
G#m
Going long into the night as if we were different
C#m
We Should be swimming
E
Oh we should be swimming
G#m
Going long into the night as if we were different
B                     C#m
We should be swimming

(In the bridge he only plays the root of the chords I believe, you could play
anything that feels right :)
G#m
Hold your breath
C#m
float down to this sea bed
E                            
then we'll see how long we can sleep
(x4)

(from this point on everything is strummed)
E - B - C#m 2x

E
Because we should be swimming
G#m
Going on into the night as if we were different
C#m
We Should be swimming
E
Oh we should be swimming
G#m
Going on into the night as if we were different
B                       C#m      G#m
We should be swimming


Hope you enjoyed it :)
