Key:G
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
G Em G Em
[Verse 1]
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's an itch I can't scratch
G
I can't shake the thorn that caught you
Em
And it always seems to catch
C Am
Do you still get my letters, is every syllable a torture?
C Am
Do your eyes still get childish when the sun comes out in autumn?
[Verse 2]
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's a breath I can't get back
G
And my tongue can't take the weight of
Em
Every insult rushing back
C Am
Do you still like my records, how I put it on wax?
C Am
Or do you hate how my fictions, make whores of my facts?
[Chorus]
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's oil in the water
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's oil in the water
[Verse 3]
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's iron on these lips
G
Where your kisses used to barter
Em
For time spent 'tween your hips
C Am
Have you found some new fingers to fumble at your fastenings?
C Am
Are you amused by fresh platitudes of love ever-lasting?
[Verse 4]
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's a ribbon of red
G
And you should really blame St Christopher
Em
For these ideas in my head
C Am
Do you still get my letters, is every syllable a torture?
C Am
Do your eyes still get childish when the sun comes out in autumn?
[Chorus]
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's oil in the water
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's oil in the water
[Outro]
C Am
Do you still like my records, how I put it on wax?
C Am
Or do you hate how my fictions, make whores of my facts?
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's oil in the water
G
There's oil in the water
Em
There's oil in the water
G
There's oil in the water...
