[Intro] Bm F# G A (double time) (x2) Bm F# G A [Verse 1]
Bm
Rain is pouring down

F#
In our land-locked town

G
Skies are always gray

A

[tab]Bm
Somewhere there is hope

F#
Somewhere there are dreams

G
Far from soot and smoke

A
Let's go surfing, babe
[Chorus 1]
  D                                    A
Tonight as we look at the moon and the stars

                            Em
From our room with security bars
There's a westerly wind that is
Bm               F#                 D
Blowing both our minds and both our feet

                                         A
Walk through sand that's as white as the snow

                                 Em
Past the people named Kelley and Joe

                                Bm        F#
Who have nothing in common with anyone we know
[Verse 2]
                Bm
We know they're too Wagnerian

F#
Too Shakespearian

G
Too impossible

A
Let's go surfing, babe

Bm
Somewhere there is hope

F#
Far from everything

G
Far from misanthropes

A
Let's go surfing, babe
[Chorus 2]
  D                                     A
Tonight, from a room only Dickens could love

                                Em
Wearing moth-eaten sweaters and gloves
We will open the window and
Bm               F#             D
Feel an on-shore wind a-blowing in

                                     A
Grab our boards from the back of our van

                                 Em
Paddle out 'til we can't see the sand

                              Bm                F#
Spin around and drop into the wave we hope will never end
[Instrumental] Bm F# G A (double time) (x2) [Verse 3]
Bm
(Spoken) Somewhere there is hope

F#
(Spoken) Somewhere there are dreams

G
(Spoken) Far from everything

A
Let's go surfing, babe
[Chorus 3]
  D                                           A
Tonight, grab our boards from the back of our van

                                 Em
Paddle out 'til we can't see the sand

                              Bm                F#
Spin around and drop into the wave we hope will never end
[Bridge]
Bm      F#      G       A
Catch a wave, a wave, a wave

Bm      F#      G       A
Catch a wave, a wave, a wave
[Verse 4]
Bm
Somewhere there is hope

Somewhere there are dreams

Far from everything

A
Let's go surfing, babe

Bm
Somewhere there is hope

F#
Somewhere there are dreams

G
Far from everything

A
Let's go surfing, babe
