[Verse 1]
Am C
The boy who fell to the wave
G B7
And drowned in his own heartache
Am C
Sinking into his own fate
G B7
And failing to see where he was
[Verse 2]
Am
Cause when he fell
C
He fell too hard
G
And nobody would pick him back up
B7
Cause nobody could pick him back up
Am
He waved hello
C
And it took him away
G B7
The wave was all he gave
[Verse 3]
Am C
The boy who fell to the wave
G B7
And suffocated in his own mistakes
Am C
He was broke, and yet so brave
G
But he wrote until his heartbeat stopped
B7
And he pushed the thought away
[Verse 4]
Am
When he cried
C
He fell apart
G
And nobody would listen enough
B7
Cause nobody could listen enough
Am
He waved hello
C
With every ounce he had to give
G
And every shred of kindness
B7
But it took him away
[Outro]
Em Am
Now it’s just the boy and the wave
D7 G
And who knows if the boy will cave?
Em
But maybe he’ll win
Am D7 G
Or maybe he’ll die when he asphyxiates
Em Am
Now it’s just a man and his grave
D7 G
Who knows if he’ll conquer his pain?
Em
But maybe he’ll lose
Am
Or maybe he’ll live
D7 G
When he beats the wave
Am C G B7
Am C G E7
