Catch A Wave

A
F
G
A
D
Catch a wave and you're sitting on top of the world
D
Don't be afraid to try the greatest sport around (Everybody tries it once)
A
D
Those who don't just have to put it down
G
You paddle out, turn around and raise
D
And baby that's all there is to the coastline craze
A
F
G
A
D
You gotta catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world
Not just a fad 'cause it's been going on so long (All the surfers going strong) They said it wouldn't last too long They'll eat their words with a fork and spoon And watch 'em they'll hit the road and all be surfin' soon And when they catch a wave they'll be sittin' on top of the world
A
D
A
D
G
D
Catch a wave and you're sittin' on top of the world So take a lesson from a top-notch surfer boy (Get yourself a big board) But don't you treat it like a toy Just get away from the shady turf And baby go catch some rays on the sunny surf And when you catch a wave you'll be sittin' on top of the world (Way up high, up on top of the world) Catch a wave, you'll be sittin' on top of the world (Way up high, up on top of the world)

Blame it all on the surfer moon
'Neath the hill, 'hind the cloud one dreamy night Rising up throwing down its golden light If your heart hears this melancholy tune
G

They make way for the surfer

And if that ain't enough to make you flip your lid
A7
D7
There's one more thing, I got the pink slip daddy!
And comin' off the line when the light turns green Well she blows 'em outta the water like you never seen I get pushed out of shape and it's hard to steer When I get rubber in all four gears She's my little deuce coupe, you don't know what I got! (Little deuce coupe, you don't know what I got) She's my little deuce coupe, you don't know what I got! (Little deuce coupe, you don't know what I got)
