When I217;m scared, you were my father. When I cant breathe you are the air,
and when I cant swim, you are my lifeboat, when im tired and weary you are
there..….

CHORUS: with distortion! note the slight chord change with D5.
And when times get high and times get low, you always let me in, on
a valued note. I could give you time alone and then, you’d only come and
ask me where have I been?

Ok, now follow that pattern of picking and chords for the rest of the song.

VERSE 2:

When I was weak, you were my shoulders. When I’m poor you give me a hand.

And when I cant swim, you were my lifeboat, you carried me to dry land…

CHORUS:

then this part where he sings “ah ah ah ah” allot. Just hit a Asus and
a Bm5 chord repeatedly for 4 measures.

VERSE 3:

When I’m not sure, you are my maker. Speak words, you keep me awake.
And when I cant swin, you are my lifeboat, when I’m tired and weary you
are there…..

CHORUS:

then repeat the “ahh ahha hh ahh “ part.

end on a D5
