It could be worse, I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own

Or like a stone that suddenly drops
It never stops, no

I could be lost or I could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by the social raves

Never again; never again

Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm screamin' out from the crests of waves

It could be worse; it's all sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Or like a light lit up on the beach
You wear your heart on your sleeve, Ohhhh

You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop just before you begin
Never give in; never give in

Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm screamin' out from the crests of waves

Oooooo Nothin' matters
Except not for the love we make
Ooooooooooo

Nothin' matters
Ooooooooooo
Except not for the love we make

Nothin' matters
Ooooooooooo
Except not for the love we make

Aaaahhhhhh
Except not for the love we make

Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm screamin' out from the crests of waves

Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oooooo Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm screamin' out from the crests of waves
Where you're longing to be saved

I'm screamin' out from the crests of waves
Where you're longing to be saved
I'm screamin' out from the crests of waves

    I believe it was releashed as a B side or something. Nonetheless, it is one of my favorite coldplay songs. I just love the chords.
