[Verse 1] N.C. I spoke with Scott last night
      Gadd9/B            D
I was tired but I wasn't sleeping

    Gadd9/B                         Bm7
And despite what you think I wasn't drinking

           Asus4
I was just finally ready to listen

           D
And he was there alright

                Gadd9/B                   D
And though he'd probably kill me just for saying this

Gadd9/B                      Bm
Given how the both of us are athiests

        Asus4
But there it is
[Chorus]
      G
There must've been a moment

       A
Just before you hit the water

              D/F#                                  G
When you were filled with a sense of peace and understanding

         G
With the wind in your hair

        A
And the light in your eyes

         D/F#                        G
When you realised you were finally escaping

    G
But somehow in that moment

      A
You miraculously missed it

       D/F#                     G
Like a wave across a bay, never breaking

       G
That's how I like to think of you

     A
Ever falling, never landing

        D/F#                        G
Rolling slowly out to sea and always smiling

                      D
You're always smiling
[Instrumental] Gadd9/B D Gadd9/B Bm7 Asus4 [Verse 2]
           D
God damn I miss you man

            Gadd9/B                            D
It was just weeks before you left that we were speaking

       Gadd9/B                            Bm7
I just wish that you had told me you were leaving

           Asus4
Before you walked your final mile

          D
I'm not pissed off at you man

            Gadd9/B                              D
But you had something in your soul that we could recognise

        Gadd9/B                               Bm
You were one of us and you worked out how you could survive

              Asus4
At least for a while
[Chorus]
      G
There must've been a moment

       A
Just before you hit the water

              D/F#                                  G
When you were filled with a sense of peace and understanding

         G
With the wind in your hair

        A
And the light in your eyes

         D/F#                        G
When you realised you were finally escaping

    G
But somehow in that moment

      A
You miraculously missed it

       D/F#                     G
Like a wave across a bay, never breaking

       G
That's how I like to think of you

     A
Ever falling, never landing

        D/F#                        G
Rolling slowly out to sea and always smiling

                      D
You're always smiling
[Bridge]
           G                       D
You were a wave aross a bay, never breaking

           G                       Bm7*
You were a wave aross a bay, never breaking

   A
Out to the sea

                    D
Ever falling, never landing

           G                       D
You were a wave aross a bay, never breaking

           G                       Bm7*
You were a wave aross a bay, never breaking

   A
Out to the sea

                    D
Ever falling, never landing

           G                       D
You were a wave aross a bay, never breaking

           G                       Bm7*
You were a wave aross a bay, never breaking

   A
Out to the sea

               G
You're always smiling
