[Verse 1]
Cm D#
The boy who fell to the wave
A# D7
And drowned in his own heartache
Cm D#
Sinking into his own fate
A# D7
And failing to see where he was
[Verse 2]
Cm
Cause when he fell
D#
He fell too hard
A#
And nobody would pick him back up
D7
Cause nobody could pick him back up
Cm
He waved hello
D#
And it took him away
A# D7
The wave was all he gave
[Verse 3]
Cm D#
The boy who fell to the wave
A# D7
And suffocated in his own mistakes
Cm D#
He was broke, and yet so brave
A#
But he wrote until his heartbeat stopped
D7
And he pushed the thought away
[Verse 4]
Cm
When he cried
D#
He fell apart
A#
And nobody would listen enough
D7
Cause nobody could listen enough
Cm
He waved hello
D#
With every ounce he had to give
A#
And every shred of kindness
D7
But it took him away
[Outro]
Gm Cm
Now it’s just the boy and the wave
F7 A#
And who knows if the boy will cave?
Gm
But maybe he’ll win
Cm F7 A#
Or maybe he’ll die when he asphyxiates
Gm Cm
Now it’s just a man and his grave
F7 A#
Who knows if he’ll conquer his pain?
Gm
But maybe he’ll lose
Cm
Or maybe he’ll live
F7 A#
When he beats the wave
Cm D# A# D7
Cm D# A# E7
