**[Intro – 4 Bars]** Upstroke rhythm, horns in the air Sunshine feeling everywhere When the tide pulled me under the wave You showed up and you saved the day **[Verse 1 – 16 Bars]** I was drifting in the middle of a stormy sea No direction, no place to be Waves were crashing, sky turned gray Didn’t think I'd ever see a brighter day Then you came with a laugh so bright Like a lighthouse cutting through the night Picked me up when my hope was low Turned my tide with a simple hello Trumpets ringing, guitars on the offbeat Suddenly my heart found a steady beat Every problem started drifting away When you danced in the sunlight that day Now the rhythm of life feels sweet Every step bouncing down the street Used to sink, now I float with ease Cause you rescued me from the seas **[Chorus – 8 Bars]** You’re my lifesaver, throwing me a line When I’m sinking low you pull me just in time Trumpets play when I see your face You bring sunshine to a cloudy place You’re my lifesaver, shining so bright Like a beacon in the darkest night When the waves of life misbehave I know I got my lifesaver **[Verse 2 – 16 Bars]** Walking down the boardwalk in the afternoon Ska band playing a happy tune Palm trees swaying in the salty breeze You and me dancing with the greatest ease Every laugh like a steel drum ring Every smile make the whole world sing People staring as we spin around Two happy souls in a ska beat town Used to worry ‘bout the things I lack But your love put my heart on track Every trouble started losing weight Soon as you stepped through my gate Life’s a tide going in and out But with you there ain’t no doubt When the waters rise above my head You’re the reason I ain’t filled with dread **[Chorus – 8 Bars]** You’re my lifesaver, throwing me a line When I’m sinking low you pull me just in time Trumpets play when I see your face You bring sunshine to a cloudy place You’re my lifesaver, shining so bright Like a beacon in the darkest night When the waves of life misbehave I know I got my lifesaver **[Verse 3 – 16 Bars]** Late night dancing by the ocean pier Moonlight shining while the band draws near Horns blasting and the bassline jumps Crowd moving like a wave of bumps Red and white like the ring you threw When the deep blue tried to swallow me too But you laughed and said “don’t you fear” Now the music’s all I hear Every heartbeat riding the groove Every worry starting to move Far away with the rolling tide With you right here by my side So if the storm clouds roll again And the thunder shakes the ocean wind I’ll just smile and start to behave Cause I know I got my lifesaver **[Chorus – 8 Bars]** You’re my lifesaver, throwing me a line When I’m sinking low you pull me just in time Trumpets play when I see your face You bring sunshine to a cloudy place You’re my lifesaver, shining so bright Like a beacon in the darkest night When the waves of life misbehave I know I got my lifesaver **[Outro – 4 Bars]** Upstroke guitars and the horns all rave Dancing tonight with my lifesaver When the tide comes in like a big blue wave I’ll just smile cause I got my lifesaver
