Standard (EADGBE)

Another roller coaster ride,

We were stuck, in overdrive,

You were broken-hearted; I was all right,

When I met you

She tried to ditch me and I tried to hate her,

But we're still here ten break-ups later

I've got this figured out,

but I still don't understand her,

She's like the perfect wave in a shark infested sea.

When she breaks, she rains down on me,

And I can't catch my breath,

But I won't let her go...

Yes I feel at home in the undertow

My friends told me 'Man you're gonna crash,

A girl like that'll knock you on your ass'

I told them all that they could eat our dust,

And we're still trucking on...

She tried to ditch me and I tried to hate her,

But we're still here ten break-ups later

Chorus

Seems like I never win, I never learned how to swim,

I spend my whole life treading water...

You got me off of the beach and now I'm back in the reef,

You can be my life preserver...
