[Chorus]
              Gm         C
I've been down one time
                  Gm         C
And I've been down two times
            Bb        D7                     Gm
But now I'm drowning, drowning in the sea of love

[Verse 1]
Gm                C         Gm                  C
I've been here so very long, I've lost all my direction
Gm                 C              Gm                     C
But baby, when you came my way, I thought I had found perfection
      Bb               Eb
But a strong wind came into my life
   Bb                   Eb
It surely took me by surprise
Bb                 Eb
I can't seem to control these tears
Am              D
Flowing from my eyes

[Chorus]
          Gm                         C
I've been down (one time) one time
          Gm                           C
I've been down (two times) two times
        Bb        D7                     Gm
But I'm drowning, drowning in the sea of love

[Verse 2]
Gm                C           Gm                  C
You know that I depend on you, for our love's navigation
Gm                 C         Gm           C
But now that you deserted me, I'm in desperation
    Bb                     Eb
But I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
   Bb                   Eb
It really took me by surprise
Bb                Eb
I look around and all I see
   Am                D
Is water coming over me

[Chorus]
          Gm                         C
I've been down (one time) one time
          Gm                           C
I've been down (two times) two times
        Bb        D7                     Gm
But I'm drowning, drowning in the sea of love

I've been down one time
                Gm                     C
I've been down (two times) two times
            Bb        D7                     Gm
But now I'm drowning, drowning in the sea of love

[Bridge]
Gm       C                 Gm
Drowning, you know I'm drowning
            C                    Gm         C
(Watch your love, watch your love, hey hey)
Gm                           C
