[Bridge]
A                  Aadd#11
I rose on you like morning light
A                        Aadd#11
In shuttered dream we'll sleep at night
F#           F#sus4 F# F#sus4 F#
It breaks my heart
A                       Aadd#11
It takes all the love I have to say
A                 Aadd#11
I know we're gonna be  ok-ay
F#           F#sus4 F# F#sus4 F#
It breaks my heart
E6/G#           Em6/G
It breaks my heart
 
[Chorus]
B
Oh honey
F#m9
Oh honey
E/G#
It's just a wave

It's just a wave
D#m7
And I know
G#m7
That when it comes
C#m7
I just hold on
F#9                             F#7
I just hold on, until it's gone

(here use your pinky on the 12th of the b string
on the F#7)
