Intro: A5 ( A5 ) ( A5 ) E5
Verse 1:
C#5 A5
I still remember the words you said
F#5 B5 G#5
They were hard enough to leave a mark
C#5 A5
And now they echo inside my head
F#5 B5 G#5
As I spiral down into the dark
A5 E5
I windmill upside down
F#5 C#5 B5
Knowing you'll come at me again
A5 F#5
And I feel your shadow pass above me
Chorus:
E5 E5 E5 E5
Octopus
E5 E5 E5 E5
Some kind of octopus
B5 F#5
Tearing my shell apart
C#5
Letting the sea get in
A5 E5
You make my insides outside
Verse 2:
C#5 A5
I don't think I ever saw you blink
F#5 B5 G#5
You were so controlled that no one knew
C#5 A5
And by the time we all stopped to think
F#5 B5 G#5
We were already too close to you
A5 E5
Now you keep coming by
F#5 C#5 B5
Telling me it's not what I think
A5 F#5
But I know a murder when I see one
Chorus:
E5 E5 E5 E5
Octopus
E5 E5 E5 E5
Some kind of octopus
B5 F#5
Tearing my shell apart
C#5
Letting the sea get in
A5
You make my insides outside
Bridge:
A5 B5 A5 B5
And far above me I can see the world
A5 B5 A5 B5
Receding slowly out of view
A5 B5 A5 B5
The sinking feeling that my worst mistake
A5 B5 A5
Was all the time I spent with you
Verse 3:
N.C.
You said you're sorry, you said you'd try
But you never did, I guess we're done
Now bits of pieces of me float by
And I die in front of everyone
And you're already gone
Halfway to wherever you sleep
And you make me wish I never met you
Chorus:
E5 E5 E5 E5
Octopus
E5 E5 E5 E5
Some kind of octopus
B5 F#5
Tearing my shell apart
C#5
Letting the sea get in
A5
You make my insides outside
