Surf Chords

[Intro]
 
B  F#
 
 
[Verse 1]
B                     D#m
Amazing, grace-filled guiding light
E              F#
See her safely home tonight
B                              D#m
The east-side squares've grown cold and loud
E                            F#
Since I lived there with the twilight crowd
E                        F#
The west end lights have lost their wow
E                                         B
Trail my thoughts, show me the way to the heart of her
E                                    B
I'm half-lost, wondering if I should follow
   F#
Or lay low
 
 
[Verse 2]
B                       D#m
Sweet, slight arresting bright light smile
G#m              F#
Peels back the layered big city style
B                     D#m
And reveals me in the mystery
G#m                     F#
of what her world could mean to me
E                        F#
She's an island girl I'm lost at sea
 
 
[Chorus]
B                    D#m          E               C#m       F#
When I was young the radio played just for me, it saved me
B                    D#m        E         C#m       F#
And now I don't want anyone who wants me, baby
B              D#m
Tuning out the darkness
G#m            C#
Turning on the dawn
B                                    F#
If life was like the songs, I'd surf across the curved horizon
F#                    B
and forget her and be gone
 
 
[Verse 3]
B                     D#m
So I check my map for tiny signs
   G#m                F#
Of where she's at and where she's been
B                            D#m
But it's made from scraps of stupid lines
     G#m                  F#
From songs and scenes and magazines
E                  F#
It doesn't tell me what it means
E                                     B
Take her face out of the start of the day for me
E                                      B
I'm half crazed, wondering if I should follow
   F#
Or let it go
 
 
[Bridge]
          B
Can't get straight
        D#m
Lost my way
        G#m                F#
I'm overcome by her spell
 
 
[Chorus]
B                    D#m          E               C#m       F#
When I was young the radio played just for me, it saved me
B                    D#m        E         C#m       F#
And now I don't want anyone who wants me, baby
B              D#m
Tuning out the darkness
G#m            C#
Turning on the dawn
   B                                  F#
If life was like the songs, I'd surf into the waves
    F#                             B
and in a splash of silver she'd be gone
