[Verse 1]
D#m F#
The boy who fell to the wave
C# F7
And drowned in his own heartache
D#m F#
Sinking into his own fate
C# F7
And failing to see where he was
[Verse 2]
D#m
Cause when he fell
F#
He fell too hard
C#
And nobody would pick him back up
F7
Cause nobody could pick him back up
D#m
He waved hello
F#
And it took him away
C# F7
The wave was all he gave
[Verse 3]
D#m F#
The boy who fell to the wave
C# F7
And suffocated in his own mistakes
D#m F#
He was broke, and yet so brave
C#
But he wrote until his heartbeat stopped
F7
And he pushed the thought away
[Verse 4]
D#m
When he cried
F#
He fell apart
C#
And nobody would listen enough
F7
Cause nobody could listen enough
D#m
He waved hello
F#
With every ounce he had to give
C#
And every shred of kindness
F7
But it took him away
[Outro]
A#m D#m
Now it’s just the boy and the wave
G#7 C#
And who knows if the boy will cave?
A#m
But maybe he’ll win
D#m G#7 C#
Or maybe he’ll die when he asphyxiates
A#m D#m
Now it’s just a man and his grave
G#7 C#
Who knows if he’ll conquer his pain?
A#m
But maybe he’ll lose
D#m
Or maybe he’ll live
G#7 C#
When he beats the wave
D#m F# C# F7
D#m F# C# E7
