[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


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

Ab  
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Ab
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Ab
F                         Dm
She broke away, broke away
Ab
F             Dm
She broke away


[Interlude: F , C , Ab , F , Dm ]
F                  C         Ab        F             Dm
  Well, she was my catatonic sex toy, love-joy dive-eeer
                   C         Ab        F             Dm
  Well, she was my catatonic sex toy, love-joy dive-eeer
          F                   C             Ab
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 Ab      F   Dm   F    C Ab 
oh yeah,    right on,   so good
    F   Dm     
oh yeah

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