[Verse]
G D C G C D
There's a photo of a ge- nius, standing by the o- cean
G D C G
With a pea coat and a cool hat in 19- 43
G D C G D C
On a beach in Santa Bar- bara, he's looking quite con- tent- ed
G D C G
His world is only mat- ter and energy
G D C G D C
Past the Channel Is- lands out into the cos- mos
G D C G
There are worlds in mo- tion that only he can see
G D C G D C
He's smiling as he's think- ing, the harbor lights are blink- ing
G D C G D
He's the smartest cookie ever was, ever will be
[Chorus]

Einstein was a surfer

There really is no doubt

?eCause the universe was his home break

And we're still all paddlin' out

[Verse]
G D C G D C
On an iceberg off New- found- land, a lyric sits half- froz- en
G D C G
Waiting for a com- et to crash into the sea
G D C G D C
It's drifting towards the trop- ics and melting into top- ics
G D C G
Fills the sea with answers that have always worked for me
G D C G D C
Bass notes from the cha- sm at speeds that we can't fath- om
G D C G
Music is the language of the near and distant stars
G D C G D C
Black holes humming B- flat, heard only by street cats
G D C G D
Astronauts in orbit and singers in the bars
[Chorus]
Em D C
Einstein was a sailor
Am G D/F# Em D
With a uni- versal song
C G
His sails were tight, his course was right
D C Bm Am G
So let's just all cruise a- long

[Verse]
G D C G D C
There's a YouTube of a ge- nius, gliding over liq- uid
G D C G
Sultan of the short board in two thousand and ten
G D C G D C
He looks like Valen- tin- o moving like neu- tri- nos
G D C G D
To the oceans in the heavens, where no wave rider's been
[Chorus]
Em D C
Einstein was a surfer
Am D
Who found the perfect break
C G
Where the strings of time meet the final chime
D C Bm Am
It's the path all surf- ers take
