A5                            D5
We can ride our bikes to the beach
               G5                        D5          A5
Where kids are running ... control with words on the street
A5                             D5
We can comb our hair with the wind
                        G5               D5              A5
We're talking with our shoulders and the shades of our skin
A5                            D5
And surfers smile up at the reef
                G5           D5          A5
But girls keep reading Cosmopolitan magazines


G5
They'll tell you how to touch

How to talk
        D5           A5
How to fuck how to breathe

A5                               D5
And we can have a talk about love
                G5               D5         A5
Or inter God or anything that's hard to believe

B5         E5           A5      F#5    D5 A5   
But sometimes it's so hard to unwind
B5         E5           
And sometimes you make it easier

Instrumental:
A5       D5      G5   D5   A5
A5       D5      G5   D5   A5

(same as before)

You can marry me in the sand
... so I?m your ideal man

But sometimes it's so hard to unwind
And sometimes you make it easier

A5                               D5
We can ride our bikes to the beach
We can ride our bikes to the beach
We can ride our bikes to the beach
G5               D5              A5
Or we can stay at home and study
