[Verse 1]
C            G7               | Dm9 | % |
 Saw a silhouette across a fluorescent
C              G7                | Dm9 | % |
  Floating overhead, undoing his helmet
 
[Bridge]
Fmaj7               C/E                 | Ebsus2 | Dm9 |
  Through the murky beams and blue-green sea life
Gsus4
 I saw him spinnin' towards the moonlight
(break)
 
[Verse 2]
C           G7           |  Dm9  |  %  |
 I pull him in, he wasn't breathin'
C              G7                   |  Dm9  |  %  |
 His eyes were wide and I saw two of me there
 
[Bridge]
Fmaj7            C/E              Ebsus2        |  Dm7  |
 There's an ugly buzz that hovers just above the quiet
Gsus4                  |  Gsus4  |  %  |
 Found a way to make it silent
                       (break)
[Chorus]
                  Cmaj7 G7      Dm9
I'm comin' up for a-a-a-a-ai-ai-air
                  Cmaj7 G7      Dm9
I'm comin' up for a-a-a-a-ai-ai-air
|  C  |  %  |  Ebsus2  |  %  |
Ai---------r  (bass line)
(break)       (break)
|  C  |  %  |  Ebsus2  |  %  |
Ai---------r
       (bass line)
(break)       (break)
 
[Verse 3]
C             G                 |  D7sus4  |  %  |
 They hold my hand and ask me to pull through
C                      G                      |  D7sus4  |  %  |
 A voice I know says, "Dear, he probably can't hear you" (break)
 
[Chorus]
                  Cmaj7 G7      Dm9
I'm comin' up for a-a-a-a-ai-ai-air
                    Cmaj7 G7      D7sus4
We’re comin' up for a-a-a-a-ai-ai-air
                    Cmaj7 G7      D7sus4
We’re comin' up for a-a-a-a-ai-ai-air
