verse
 
G            Cadd9 
  five years old 
                      Dsus4 
And life had made me shy 
 
I'm telling you 
 
Cadd9                              G 
Shikaiya made me feel like I could fly 
              Cadd9 
And there she was 
                        Dsus4 
So crazy but she was on fire 
                  Cadd9 
A smile behind the door of every answer 
 
to my questions 
 
BRIDGE
 
Em7                        Dsus4 
You made it seem like everything was possible 
 
CHORUS
 
G                      Cadd9          Dsus4   Cadd9 
That's where you stood out from everybody elese 
   G Cadd9 Dsus4  Cadd9 
Shikaiya , yeah 
G                   Cadd9 
That's what you're about and 
           Dsus4           Cadd9 
you should never lose yourself 
               G 
Shikaiya , yeah 
 
VERSE
 
G             Cadd9 
Down the phone 
                 Dsus4 
Years and miles apart 
               Cadd9 
We try to find the magic we used to bounce 
                    G 
From heart to heart 
                Cadd9                          Dsus4 
But you don't seem to believe in anything today 
                 Cadd9 
I wonder if your dreams got smashed 
 
upon the rocks of Bateau Bay 
 
BRIDGE
 
Em7                         Dsus4 
You made me feel like every wave is beautiful
