SWIM UNTIL YOU CAN'T SEE LAND (ACOUSTIC) - Frightened Rabbit Tabbed by: Sam Rayner Site: samrayner.com This is the acoustic version of Swim played by Scott Hutchison for offthebeatentracks.tv: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5YxtPpMMHs I've tabbed it so it can be played with standard tuning and chords but it sounds much better if you tune to CGDGBE and follow Scott's versions of the chords. N.B. Standard chord names (e.g. D) are used for simplicity but the fingerings differ between verse and chorus! Refer to the guide below if you want to match Scott's sound. Awesome song. Enjoy!

^FWe sa^Glute at the ^Amthreshold^F of the ^GNorth Sea in my ^Fmind ^FAnd the ^Gnautical ^Amboard-man that ^Fdrove me ^Ghere to face the ^Ftide and ^FSwim ^F5 ^FI ^Fswim ^F5 ^FI ^Fswim ^F5 ^F ^F ^F5

^FDip the ^Gtoe in the ^Amocean. ^FOh how it ^Ghardens and it ^Fnumbs And the ^Frest of ^Gme is a ^Amburgeoned ^Fman ^Gbuilt to collapse into ^Fcrumbs And if ^FI had^Gn't come ^Amdown ^Fto the ^Gcoast to disappear^F ^FI may have ^Gdied in a l^Amand-slide ^Fof the ^Grocks, the hopes and ^Ffears.

So ^Fswim until you can't see ^F5lan^Fd | F F5 F | Swim until you can't see land | F F5 F | X2 Swim until you can't see land | G F | Are you a man, are you a bag of sand? |

F G Am F G F (X2)

^FUp to my ^Gknee^Ams now,^F do I ^Gwait? Do I ^Fdive? ^FThe sea has ^Gseen my ^Amlike before ^Fthough it's my ^Gfirst and perhaps last ^Ftime. ^FLet's call ^Gme a ^Ambaptist, ^Fcall this the ^Gdrowning of the ^Fpast ^FShe's ^Gthere on the ^Amshoreline ^Fthrowing ^Gstones at my ^Fback

So ^Fswim until you can't see ^F5lan^Fd | F F5 F | Swim until you can't see land | F F5 F | X2 Swim until you can't see land | G F | Are you a man, are you a bag of sand? |

BRIDGE (X2)

^FNow the ^Gwater's ^Amtaller than ^Fme and the ^Gland is a marker ^Fline ^FAll I ^Gam is a ^Ambody a^Fdrift in ^Gwater, salt and ^Fsky

So ^Fswim until you can't see ^F5lan^Fd | F F5 F | Swim until you can't see land | F F5 F | X2 Swim until you can't see land | G F | Are you a man, are you a bag of sand? |

Are ^Gyou a man, are you a ^Fbag of sand? Are ^Gyou a man, are you a ^Fbag of sand? Are ^Gyou a man, are you a ^Fbag of sand? Are ^Gyou a man, are you a ^Fbag of ^Fsand?
