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