[Verse]
Cm
And so the days go on and on
Bb
And I don't know if I can carry on much longer
Cm
I just need a sign
Bb
Anything honey, just give me a sign

[Chorus]
Gm
Anybody, anywhere
F       Cm
Do you see my flare?
Gm
Anyway, anyhow
F        Cm
Cos I'm over and out
Go!

[Chorus]
Gm                 Bb
Taking water, been hit inside
F                        Cm
With the force of a category five
Gm                   Bb
Sinking fast in the sea I cried
     F
No land in sight
       Cm
It's mayday, mayday
Gm                Bb
Introducing the SOS
F                   Cm
Make a beeline cos I'm in distress
Gm                    Bb
Tried to do it but I can't forget
   F
So out my depth
     Cm
It's Mayday, mayday

[Verse]
Gm
I'm going down
     Cm
Come in, do you read me?
Gm                      Cm
Tried not to quit, it ain't always easy
Gm                        Cm
Come, come around before love defeats me
Gm   Am
Now

[Pre Chorus]
Cm
Cos I've been in trouble before
Bb
But this time I'm in over my head
Cm
And if there's anybody out there
Bb
Just don't leave me hanging this way

[Chorus]
Gm
Anybody, anywhere
F       Cm
Do you see my flare?
Gm
Anyway, anyhow
F        Cm
Cos I'm over and out
Go!

Gm
Only the ocean to say goodnight
Dm                 Cm
Only the ocean to love me
Gm
Only a heartache to hold me tight
Dm                Cm
Only my troubles above me

Gm
I'm going down
Cm      F
There's no one to stop me
Gm
Come, come around
    Cm             F
Cos love came and got me
Gm
Girl overboard
     Cm
Come in, do you copy?
Gm
Now
Gm

Mayday, mayday
Gm
M-A-Y-D-A-Y
Mayday, mayday

Cm
And I just know something's gonna change soon
Bb
Cos there's only so much a girl could take
Cm
And if there's anybody out there
Bb
I just need a sign, just give me a sign

[Chorus]
Gm
Anybody, anywhere
F       Cm
Do you see my flare?

Anyway, anyhow

Cos I'm over and out

Anybody, anywhere
F       Cm
Do you see my flare?
Gm
Anyway, anyhow
F        Cm
Cos I'm over and out
