G#                            G#sus4       G#   G#sus4
I never came to the beach, or stood by the ocean
Cm                  C#              Cm                       C#
I never sat by the shore, under the sun with my feet in the sand
                G#              G#sus4     G#
But you brought me here and I'm happy that you did
      G#sus4   G#               G#sus4   G#      G#sus4
'Cause now I'm as free as birds catching the wind
G#                               G#sus4  G#    G#sus4
I always thought I would sink, so  I  never swam
  Cm                        C#
I never went boatin', don't get how they are floatin'
    Cm                  C#                       Fm     A#m
And sometimes I get so scared of what I can't understand

Chorus:
           G# Cm        Fm  A#m
But here I am,  next to you
           G#       Cm    Fm   A#m
The sky is more blue  in Malibu
        G# Cm    Fm   A#m
Next to you  in Malibu
        G# Cm
Next to you

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

Chorus

        Fm A#m
Next to you
          G#     Cm    Fm   A#m
The sky's so blue  in Malibu
        G# Cm
Next to you

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