Title:

“Riding the Wave”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Em C
Beneath the stars, chasing a dream,
G D
We found our hearts in the rhythm unseen.
Em C
In the echoes of the night, the melody we craved,
G D
Together we’re stronger, Riding the Wave.

(Chorus)
C G
Riding the Wave, lighting up the dark,
D Em
In the echoes of our hearts.
C G
Riding the Wave, leaving no trace,
D Em
In the rhythm, we find our place.

(Verse 2)
Em C
Through the noise, in the silent roar,
G D
We find our voice, never heard before.
Em C
In the winding road, in every chance we gave,
G D
Together we’re bolder, Riding the Wave.

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
Em C
We ride the rhythm and roll,
G D
In the silence, we find our soul.
Em C
In the music, we save,
G D
Every moment, as we ride the Wave.

(Repeat Chorus)
