D#                   A#7
If everybody had an ocean
               D#
Across the U.S.A.
                    A#7
Then everybody'd be surfin'
              D#
Like California
                             G#
You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
                 D#
Huarachi sandals too
                     A#7    G#
A bushy bushy blonde hairdo
            D#
Surfin' U.S.A.

Chorus:
D#                          A#7
You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
               D#
Ventura County line
               A#7
Santa Cruz and Trestles
                 D#
Australia's Narrabeen
            G#
All over Manhattan
                D#
And down Doheny Way
                 A#7     G#
Everybody's gone surfin'
            D#
Surfin' U.S.A.

We'll all be planning that route
We're gonna take real soon
We're waxing down our surfboards
We can't wait for June
We'll all be gone for the summer
We're on surfari to stay
Tell the teacher we're surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A

Chorus:
Haggerties and Swamis
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Pacific Palisades
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
San Onofre and Sunset
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Redondo Beach LA
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
All over La Jolla
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
At Wa'imea Bay
(Inside, outside)

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A

Yeah everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A

Yeah everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A
