Learning To Breathe by Switchfoot - Guitar Chords

<< Back to Switchfoot Song List
Version 2
            CHORD KEY
Cadd2 - x32030
D/B - x20032
G/C - x30033
Dsus4 - xx0233
Em7 - 022030

TIPS:
1.  For slash chords, the first letter is the main chord, the second letter is the bass note.
2.  The changes between G and D/B look confusing at times because I tried to line it up 
the correct lyrics;
just understand that each chord is 2 beats and that should make it easier.
3.  The chorus looks confusing too; it's just Cadd2 (4 beats), Em7 (2 beats), and G (2 
till you get to the D (4 beats).

I'm learning to crawl
    G            Cadd2                          Em7
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall

I never, never thought that

I would fall like that

I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall

I'm living again, awake and alive
    G        D                         Cadd2
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies

          Dsus4
This is a way

                Em7
I'm learning to crawl
    G            Cadd2                          Em7
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
    G       Cadd2            Em7
I'm living again, awake and alive
    G        D                         Cadd2
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
                 D                        Cadd2
Yes I'm dying to breath in these abundant skies
               Am    C

                D

             Cadd2
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
Cadd2                          Em7  G
Hello, good morning, how you do?

FADE OUT
Cadd2  Em7 G
Cadd2  Em7 G
D  Cadd2  (G)*

*The album version cuts out after the Cadd2, but if you're playing this live, you might 
to end on that G
so it resolves back to the tonic.
