F (A) (Bb) (G)
Cease to resist, giving my goodbye
Bb-A-G-F (A) (Bb) (G)
Drive my car into the ocean
You'll think I'm dead, but I sail away

On a wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
Wave of mutilation
A wave .... wave

I've kissed mermaids, rode the el nino
Walked the sand with the crustaceans
Could find my way to mariana
Now play CHORUS two times
