A
She caught up in that new California love
I'm the kid from out of town, tryin'
to get me so-o-o-o-o-ome
                   D
I ask her how her nights been
                        A
She said lets go for a night swim
         E D           A
And you know what she meant

Chorus:
        Am          C               G
So come on, let the ocean take us away
         F                Am
'Til we see the daylight come
        C                    G
And I know that its gettin' late
But we wanna stay
           Am                          C
She on my surfboard board board board board
board board
           G                           F
She on my surfboard board board board board
board board
           Am                          C
She on my surfboard board board board board
board board
           G
She on my surfboard board
Go ride it, surfboard

Am C G F         Am C G
        Surfboard

We woke up on the beach down in Mexico
She asked me how we got here
And I don't know
We got back in the water
The waves were crashing on her
And you know how it goes

So come on
Let the ocean take us away
'Til we see the daylight come
And I know that it's getting late
But we wanna stay

Chorus

Am
Summer lust on a summer dust
     C
She told 'em girls can't surf with us
Dm
surf with us can't surf with us
G                         Am
Salts on her skin let me wantin' more
               C                        Dm
on the shore, love beach boys like 64, 64

Chorus:
Surfboard
She on my surfboard
She on my surfboard
She on my surfboard
Gon' ride it, surfboard
Gon' ride it
Surfboard
Surfboard
