Intro: Am

            C 
The octopus has 3 hearts 
F                  Fm 
And lives in caves below the sea 
        C        G    F 
Or in a beer can or a bath tub 
     E             Am 
Or a puddle in the street 


                  C 
Any fisherman can tell you 
        F       Fm 
When an octopus waves its arms 
   C    G     F 
It hypnotizes schools of fish 
    E                  Am 
All movement stops for miles 


                     C 
Even the waves stand still 
        F              Fm 
All the witnesses have sworn 
         C      G      F 
And it?s impossible to resist 
    E            Am 
The urge to jump overboard 

G 
       C 
That?s why I try and stay away 
     F               Fm 
From seashore holidays 


      C         G      F 
But I know that no one has to know 
     C       G       F 
If I take an evening stroll 
C           G          F 
Down to the end of the wooden peer 
          E                Am 
Where the water?s deep and cold

                   C 
If I should see an octopus 
F             Fm 
Lift its arms out of the sea 
   C       G      F 
Or see its shadow rising up 
          E                  Am 
Cross the rooftops above the streets 


                         C 
I?d follow those dancing limbs 
       F             Fm 
To the spinning edge of the sky 
C             G          F 
Where all the boats fall off the world 
     E             Am 
Into the octopus?s eye 

G 
       C 
That?s why I know I shouldn?t go 
     F                 Fm 
On a cruise across the sea 


      C         G      F 
But I know that no one has to know 
     C       G       F 
If I take an evening stroll 
C           G          F 
Down to the end of the wooden peer 
          E                Am 
Where the water?s deep and cold
