[Intro]
B G#m F# E
[Verse 1]
B G#m
We were talking on a boardwalk
F# E
We were lit up when the lights came down
B G#m
So we drifted toward the music
F# E
And you kissed me as the sound
B G#m
Of my favorite band was playing
F# E
But I couldn't hear them 'cause my heart
B G#m
Was beatin' loud and out a rhythm
F# E
As you drowned out all the dark
[Chorus]
B G#m
I was a boat trapped in a bottle
F#
Dying for water
E
You were the ocean
B G#m
I was a compass that couldn't find heaven
F# E
I didn't know how bad I was broken
B G#m
I was castaway with no land
F# E
I drew a broken heart in the sand
B G#m
And you were the wave the wave the wave
F#
That washed it all
E
That washed it all away
[Instrumental]
B G#m F# E
[Verse 2]
B G#m
We talked for a couple of hours
F# E
We got salt all over our jeans
B G#m
And we laughed about forever
F# E
What the hell did that really mean
B G#m
And all of a sudden thanks to you
F# E
My favorite color is blue
B G#m
I never saw you coming
F# E
Sweet salvation and I never knew

I was castaway with no land

And you were the wave the wave the wave

That washed it all

That washed it all away
[Bridge]
B G#m
I was a town closed for winter
F# E
I was a Ferris wheel with the light burnt out
G#m F# B E
'Til you came along, when you came along
[Chorus]
B G#m
I was a boat trapped in a bottle
F#
Dying for water
E
You were the ocean

I didn't know how bad I was broken

I drew a broken heart in the sand
B G#m
And you were the wave the wave the wave
F#
That washed it all
E B G#m F#
That washed it all away
E B G#m F# E
Yeah you washed it all away
B G#m F#
You were the wave the wave the wave
E B G#m F# E
Yeah that washed it all away
