To Gget so Dup for Ait
DKnow you can Gcount on me
I'll Gbe so Dup for Ait

4. Surfer's Hymn
B
BWhen there are Ehard Btimes I'll F#step it Bup
When there are Edangerous Btimes I'll F#spot them Bup
I'll take my Etime to Bmake up F#my own Bmind
E  C#/ F   B   D#m   C#m   B  
To set it up when the times are calling for a steady creed
How do I Eknow Bit's F#time?
Even if EI've Bgot F#mine
'Cause if the Ewise Bdo F#know Ewhat G#mwis F#dom G#mis
If G#mI could Berr on F#every Egood side Bevery F#time
Out Bon the F#water
A riEder can reaF#7dy
Though Bwaves comes crasF#hing
A good Eboard can F#7steady
I Bwouldn't ever want to bet uF#pon the balance Eon what's going F#7on
Would BI? Would F#I? Would EI? Would F#7I?
B
BStay
What's in my C#mway?
What's in my Bway?
Got to have it to get over F#7it
BStay
What's in my C#mway?
What's in my Bway?
Got to have it to get over F#7it
BStay
What's in my C#mway?
What's in my Bway?
Got to have it to get over F#7it
B
BTo have an Eempty Bfortune F#when I Bfear
To have a Edeadly Bweapon, F#as it's Bcalled
Which is an Eanswer Bto a F#challenge Bmade by Eanything
C#/ F   B   D#m   C#m  B  
Then to always know just what things violence needs
How do I know its time?
Even if I got mine
'Cause if the wise do know what wisdom is
If I could err on every good side every time
Out on the water
A rider can ready
Though waves comes crashing
A good board can steady
I wouldn't ever want to bet upon the balance on what's going on
Would I? Would I? Would I? Would I?
F#7Why wouldn BI?

I see it up ahead
I've seen it all behind
I see it at the sides
Though I've no point to try
But if I could do
Then what I would do to you
I see it in the day
I see it in the night
I see it all the time
Though I might not desire
But if I could do
Then what I would do to you
