[Verse 1]
D C
It was raining in Chicago
G D
when her wheels touched down on Myrtle Beach
D C
She had never seen the ocean
G D
now it was only slightly out of reach
D C
She had her family around her
G D
how could she want for anything more
D C
Until a stranger stood beside her
G D
said come on girl let's grab a board
[Chorus]
D C
She had to ride into the ocean
G D
Ride into the sea
D C
She had to ride to feel the motion
G C
With the line in her eyes and the swell on her mind
G D
She had to ride to be free
[Verse 2]
D C
He was born with a purpose
G D
a philosopher from Little Rock way
D C
He was searching for the answers
G D
until life took the questions away
D C
Becky is his true love
G D
they leave their marks on the sand
D C
Adapting to life's moments
G D
they climb the rocks hand in hand
[Chorus]
D C
She had to ride into the ocean
G D
Ride into the sea
D C
She had to ride to feel the motion
G C
With the line in her eyes and the swell on her mind
G D
She had to ride to be free
[Bridge]
Em G
And when I think I've done all that I can
D C
I look to the waves to try and understand
Em G
it's not enough to stand where I stand
D
got to lend a hand
[Chorus]
D C
She had to ride into the ocean
G D
Ride into the sea
D C
She had to ride to feel the motion
G C
With the line in her eyes and the swell on her mind
G D
She had to ride to be free
