The into and verse strum pattern are the same - there is a hammer
on and off on the D string during the C chord twice to get that
note change, and the G string is opened at the end of the F chord.
 
Listen to the song and mess around with hammering during the
C chord and opening the F chord and you will get it!
 
( ) - Optional chords
 
Intro:
C    F    C    F
 
Verse:
C                        F
Caught in the middle of a crossfire
C                    F   (G)
Lost my balance on a high wire
Am                   F       C
Trying to figure out what to do
 
C                        F
Pushed to the edge of my reason
C                        F   (G)
Everywhere around me it's treason
Am                   F     C
I don't want to do that to you
 
Chorus:
         Am               F
Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
             C               G
Are we going down or will we fly?
                Am               F
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
             C               G
Or we could sail away forevermore
F   G           (Intro pattern C  F  C  F)
This time it's sink or swim, sink or swim
 
 
 
Hearing the song in your laughter
A melody I chase after
No one else has done this to me
 
Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
Are we going down or will we fly?
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
Or we could sail away forevermore
This time it's sink or swim, sink or swim
 
Bridge:
F
Take a deep breath
No more time left
This is what I thought I wanted
Why am I afraid?
 
Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
Are we going down or will we fly?
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
Or we could sail away forevermore
 
Kamikaze airplanes in the sky
Are we going down or will we fly?
This could be a shipwreck on the shore
Or we could sail away forevermore
This time it's sink or swim, sink or swim
