VERSE 1:

C                 Am        D              C
Currents that are stronger, wanna drag you under,

G             F     G                C
I would never tire, swimming next to you.

C         Am      D           C
We became united, twisted and enlightened,

G          F     G                C
Skating on fire, yes you know its true.

VERSE 2:

C                Am         D               C
She took off her tee shirt, like a worm I'd eat dirt,

G          F           G            C
Just to be beside her, every single night.

C                  Am       D              C
Golf ball hail and thunder, rum and Stevie Wonder,

G            F    G            C
Warmer than fire, getting into you.

SEMI-CHORUS:

C     Dm     G  F                            G       C
These memories, dear god I hope she's always next to me.

VERSE 3:

C                Am       D              C
Picking and then peaking, with the costa ricans,

G          F          G                 C
Lying on a surfboard, four weeks of the year.

C              Am     D                 C
She was in her cycle, crashed her motorcycle,

G              F        G              C
Broken toes in plaster, stiches in her arm.

CHORUS:

C     Dm     G  F                            G       C
These memories, dear god I hope she's always next to me,

C     Dm   G          F                           G       C
When we're deceased, dear god I hope she's always next to me.
