[Intro: F, Dm, Am]

F                              Dm, Am
When she walks down the street,
    F                             Dm, Am
She knows there's people watching.
    F                              Dm, Am
The building fronts are just fronts
    F                           Dm, Am
To hide the people watching her
     F                              Dm, Am
But she once fell through the street
       F                       Dm, Am
Down a manhole in that bad way
       F             Dm, Am
The underground drip
     F                       Dm, Am
Was just like her scuba days


Dm
Days
Am
Daze
F
Days


Am    F                              Dm           C           
      She was all right because the sea was so airtight, 
    Am
she broke away
    F                             Dm            C
   She was all right because the sea was so airtight, 
    Am
she broke away
F                         Dm              C     
She is all right but she can't come out tonight 
    Am
she broke away
F                                               
She was all right, yeah the sea was so tight, air tight


Bb  
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Bb
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Dm
Bb
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Bb
F             Dm
She broke away


[Verse 2]

F                                     Dm, Am
At the bottom of the ocean she dwells
     F                                Dm, Am
At the bottom of the ocean she dwells
     F                           Dm, Am
From crevices caressed by fingers
     F                     Dm, Am
And fat blue serpent swells 


F
  Stella  Dm, Am, F

  Stella  Dm, Am, F

Oh, Stella Dm, Am, F 

F
Stella I love you [x3]


Am   F                              Dm             C
     She was all right because the sea was so airtight, 
    Am
she broke away
   F                             Dm            C
   She was all right because the sea was so airtight, 
    Am
she broke away

F                        Dm                C           Am
She is all right but she can't come out tonight, she broke away
F                                                 
She was all right, yeah the sea was so tight, air tight

Yeah, she?s mine!

Bb  
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Bb
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Dm
Bb
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Bb
F             Dm
She broke away


[Interlude: F, C, Bb, F, Dm]

F                  C         Bb        F             Dm
  Well, she was my catatonic sex toy, love-joy dive-eeer
F                  C         Bb        F             Dm
  Well, she was my catatonic sex toy, love-joy dive-eeer
          F                   C             Bb
She went down down down there into the sea,
               F                   Dm                         F
Yeah she went down down down there, down there for me, right on
    F   Dm        F      F   Dm
oh yeah,   right on, so good
    F   C Bb      F   Dm   F    C Bb 
oh yeah,    right on,   so good
    F   Dm     
oh yeah    


 F
(There's something that's invisible,
        Dm
There's some things you can't hide,
     F
Try detect you when I'm sleeping,
      Dm
In a wave you say goodbye...)
