[Intro] D  D4  D  D4

[Primera Parte]

D                              D4     D   D4
I never came to the beach, or stood by the ocean
F#m                   G              F#m                      G
I never sat by the shore, under the sun with my feet in the sand
                 D              D4     D
But you brought me here and I'm happy that you did
        D4  D                D4    D  D4
'Cause now I'm as free as birds catching the wind
D                                 D4   D      D4
I always thought I would sink, so  I  ne - ver swam
   F#m                        G
I never went boatin', don't get how they are floatin'
     F#m                  G                      Bm      Em
And sometimes I get so scared of what I can't understand

[Estribillo]

           D  F#m         Bm  Em
But here I am,  next to you
            D       F#m   Bm   Em
The sky is more blue  in Malibu
        D  F#m    Bm   Em
Next to you  in Malibu
        D  F#m
Next to you

[Segunda Parte]

 D                        D4      D     D4
We watched the sun go down as we were walking
D                              D4  D          D4
I'd spent the rest of my life standing here talking
D                             D4      D  D4
You would explain the current, as  I  try to smile
 F#m                     G                      F#m
Hoping I just stay the same, and nothing will change
             G               D         D4  D
And it'll be us, just for a while. Do we even  exist?
             D4    D              D4      D      D4
That's when  I  make the wish, to swim away with the fish
   D                         D4  D      D4
Is it supposed to be this hot all summer long?
F#m                  G                       F#m
I never would've believed you if three years ago you told me
     G               Bm       Em
I'd be here writing this song

[Estribillo]

           D  F#m         Bm  Em
But here I am,  next to you
            D     F#m   Bm   Em
The sky is so blue  in Malibu
        D  F#m    Bm   Em
Next to you  in Malibu
        D  F#m
Next to you

Next to you

Next to you

 D                               D4  D       D4
We are just like the waves that flow back and forth
 D
Sometimes I feel like I'm drowning
    D4           D
And you're there to save me
                           D4  D
And I wanna thank you with all of my heart
         D4  D
It's a brand   new start
    D4  D           D4  D  D4  D
A dream   come true in Ma  -  libu
