Swan Dive Lyrics
by Sister Hazel
Capo: 4th Fret
The song is in the key of C# which makes the open chords look abit nasty
(lost of sharp's) so I've Capo'd at the 4th fret to simplify the chords and
to get the correct voicing. I havent tabbed the solo's - just do your own
thing in C# major - shoot me an email if you need help with positions/root
notes to aim for.
Chords (Relative to Capo):
Hammer On's & Walks
There are 2 hammer on's:
1. Nearly every second F#m9: Hammer on the open E string to the 2nd
fret - I will deonote this with an *
2. The E chord during the Pre Chorus and at the end of the Chorus: Denoted
with a * the hammer on is of the 4th and 5th strings whilst holding the
3rd;
Walk:
There is a walk is during the chorus in the transtion from the E to the
Asus. It is played everytime. It is as follows:
Muting:
There is quite abit of muting going on during the Intro and verses, you
will just have to listen in to the track to get the ryhthm.
Now the song!:
Slide down the E string
Would you think I was crazy
If I stripped on down to my skin or
Would you think I was free as a bee
Cmon tell me - tell me -
Tell the truth now
Would you think you could meditate
In the middle of the eye of a hurricane
Would you now
but somehow If we were tethered here together
We could weather out the weather here
Pre horus
And oh yeah I might be crazy -
But thats not the same as insane
Though Im scared -
But thats not the same as being afraid
horus
sus4
If I throw myself right over the edge
sus4
If I find myself in over my head
If I If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to yeah swan dive - into you
Interlude + Small Solo
So tell me now what youre thinking
A lincoln for your thoughts
Or a dollar for them all yeah
I can take the truth -
No I cant - yes I can
Tell me we were meant
To be - a happy accident
Would you cry if I said it
Would you get it if I told you
That I want you and I needed you
Aw that wouldnt say enough
Hell I love you
How bout that yeah
Pre horus
And oh yeah I might be crazy -
But thats not the same as insane
Though Im scared -
But thats not the same as being afraid
horus
sus4
If I throw myself right over the edge
sus4
If I find myself in over my head
If I If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to yeah swan dive - into you
Pre horus
And oh yeah I might be crazy -
But thats not the same as insane
Though Im scared -
But thats not the same as being afraid
horus X 2
sus4
If I throw myself right over the edge
sus4
If I find myself in over my head
If I If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to yeah swan dive

If I If I shatter from the fall and I lose
I'd still want to yeah swan dive - into you
