Intro : D# A# Fm Cm D# A# Cm G#

D A Fm Cm
I spent the summer In santa cruz
D A
And I met a blonde on the beach
Cm G
With lots of quirky tattoos
D A
She had that old movie quote
Fm Cm
"we're gonna need a bigger boat"
D A
Two tiny waves on her toes
Cm G
And turtle tracks on her collarbones
Fm G A
I asked her what they meant
Fm Cm A
And this is what she said

Chorus :

A Cm
You gotta go with the flow
D G G
Cuz the tides always turn
A Cm
And sink or swim, diving in
D G G
Is the best way to learn
A Cm
Kick up the sand cuz your tan
D G G
Proves you lived through the burn
A Cm
And when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt
D G G
You can't stop the waves
Cm A
But you can learn how to surf

Interlude : A# Cm D/G# G#

A Cm
And by the way, it's okay
D G G
It could always be worse
A Cm
Yeah when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt
D G G
You can't stop the waves

Cm A# (D#)

But you can learn how to surf

Interlude : D# A# Fm Cm

D A
I met a blonde on the beach

She had a shark on her arm
Fm Cm
A pirate shredding the gnar
D A
An octopus wearing shades
Cm G
And seagull wings on her shoulder blades
Fm G A
I asked her what they meant
Fm Cm A
And this is what she said

Go with the flow
A
Then she said when you're sad
Cm
And you feel alone
G
Write them down,
Cm A
All your worries and woes
G
Go with the flow
A
Then fold em up, cork it shut
Cm
And let that bottle go
G A D
And set your troubles afloat

Interlude : A# Cm D/G# G#

A Cm
She told me hey, seas the day
D G G
Know the ocean by heart
A Cm
And if it don't float your boat
D G G
Learn to swim with the sharks
