**Intro :** {C} {G} {Dm} {Am} {C} {G} {Am} {F}
I spent the [C]summer in sa[G]nta [Dm][Am]cruz
And I met a [C]blonde on the be[G]ach
With lots of [Am]quirky tatto[F]os
She had that [C]old movie qu[G]ote
“we’re gonna need [Dm]a bigger bo[Am]at”
Two tiny [C]waves on her to[G]es
And turtle [Am]tracks on her co[F]llarbones
[Dm]I asked her wha[F]t they [G]meant
[Dm]And this is wha[Am]t she [G]said
**Chorus :**
You gotta g[G]o with the flo[Am]w
Cuz the t[Em]ides always tu[F]rn
And sink or s[G]wim, diving [Am]in
Is the b[Em]est way to le[F]arn
Kick up the s[G]and cuz your [Am]tan
Proves you l[Em]ived through the bu[F]rn
And when you w[G]ipe out, it'[Am]s gonna hurt
You c[Em]an’t stop the wa[F]ves
But you c[Am]an learn [G]how to surf
**Interlude :** {G} {Am} {Em} {F}
And by the w[G]ay, it’s [Am]okay
It could a[Em]lways be wo[F]rse
Yeah when you w[G]ipe out, it'[Am]s gonna hurt
You c[Em]an’t stop the wa[F]ves
But you c[Am]an learn [G]how to surf [C]
**Interlude :** {C} {G} {Dm} {Am}
I met a [C]blonde on the be[G]ach
With lots of [Am]quirky tatto[F]os
She had a [C]shark on her ar[G]m
A pirate [Dm]shredding the gn[Am]ar
An octo[C]pus wearing sh[G]ades
And seagull [Am]wings on her sh[F]oulder blades
[Dm]I asked her wha[F]t they meant[G]
[Dm]And this is wha[Am]t she [G]said
**Chorus :**
You gotta g[G]o with the flo[Am]w

And you [Am]feel alone
[F]Write them down,
All your [Am]worries and wo[G]es
Go with the [F]flow
Then fold em up, cork it [G]shut
And let that [Am]bottle go
[F]And set your tro[G]ubles afloat[C]
**Interlude :** {G} {Am} {Em} {F}
**Chorus :**
She told me h[G]ey, seas the [Am]day

And if it d[G]on’t float your boa[Am]t
Learn to s[Em]wim with the sh[F]arks
Kick up the s[G]and cuz your [Am]tan
Proves you l[Em]ived through the bu[F]rn
And when you w[G]ipe out, it'[Am]s gonna hurt
You c[Em]an’t stop the wa[F]ves
