First Verse Tab (Can be used throughout the song) - Chords Shapes , , , ,

Forgive me someone, for I have sinned

And I know not where I should begin

Some days it feels like you just can't win

No matter what you do or say.

Things didn't kill me but I don't feel stronger

Life is short but it feels much longer

You've lost that drive, you've lost that hunger

To pull yourself through the day.

Chorus

But if ever I stray from the path I follow

Take me down to the English Channel

Throw me in where the water is shallow

And then drag me on back to shore!

'Cos love is free and life is cheap

As long as I've got me a place to sleep

Clothes on my back and some food to eat

I can't ask for anything more

Come on everybody sing it 1, 2, 3, 4

We've all got secrets that we hold inside

The worst little things that we try and defy

The worst one of all that you never can hide

Is that you're never quite as strong as you sound

So I'm sorry baby, for the times I've hurt you

Sorry friends, for the times I desert you

Most days it feels like I don't deserve you

No wonder that you're all still around

Chorus

But if ever I stray from the path I follow

Take me down to the English Channel

Throw me in where the water is shallow

And then drag me on back to shore!

'Cos love is free and life is cheap

As long as I've got me a place to sleep

Clothes on my back and some food to eat

I can't ask for anything more

Come on everybody sing it 1, 2, 3, 4

Come on and join me in the water

Swim for hope

Sometimes it's hard to remember

I couldn't do this on my own

Chorus

But if ever I stray from the path I follow

Take me down to the English Channel

Throw me in where the water is shallow

And then drag me on back to shore!

'Cos love is free and life is cheap

As long as I've got me a place to sleep

Clothes on my back and some food to eat

I can't ask for anything more

I can't ask for anything more

The path I chose isn't straight and narrow

It wanders 'round like a drunken fellow

Some days it's hard for me to follow

But if you've got my back I'll go on.

If you've got my back I'll go on.
