[Verse 1]
Gm A#
The boy who fell to the wave
F A7
And drowned in his own heartache
Gm A#
Sinking into his own fate
F A7
And failing to see where he was
[Verse 2]
Gm
Cause when he fell
A#
He fell too hard
F
And nobody would pick him back up
A7
Cause nobody could pick him back up
Gm
He waved hello
A#
And it took him away
F A7
The wave was all he gave
[Verse 3]
Gm A#
The boy who fell to the wave
F A7
And suffocated in his own mistakes
Gm A#
He was broke, and yet so brave
F
But he wrote until his heartbeat stopped
A7
And he pushed the thought away
[Verse 4]
Gm
When he cried
A#
He fell apart
F
And nobody would listen enough
A7
Cause nobody could listen enough
Gm
He waved hello
A#
With every ounce he had to give
F
And every shred of kindness
A7
But it took him away
[Outro]
Dm Gm
Now it’s just the boy and the wave
C7 F
And who knows if the boy will cave?
Dm
But maybe he’ll win
Gm C7 F
Or maybe he’ll die when he asphyxiates
Dm Gm
Now it’s just a man and his grave
C7 F
Who knows if he’ll conquer his pain?
Dm
But maybe he’ll lose
Gm
Or maybe he’ll live
C7 F
When he beats the wave
Gm A# F A7
Gm A# F E7
