[Am]

The octopus [C]has 3 hearts
[F]And lives in caves [Fm]below the sea
Or in a [C]beer can [G]or a [F]bath tub
Or a [E]puddle in the [Am]street

Any fisherman can [C]tell you
When an [F]octopus [Fm]waves its arms
It [C]hypno[G]tizes [F]schools of fish
All [E]movement stops for [Am]miles

Even the waves stand [C]still
All the [F]witnesses have [Fm]sworn
And itâ?[C] ?™s im[G]possibl[F]e to resist
The [E]urge to jump [Am]overboard

[G]
Thatâ?[C] ?™s why I try and stay away
From [F]seashore holiday[Fm]s

But I [C]know that [G]no one [F]has to know
If I [C]take an [G]evening [F]stroll
[C]Down to the [G]end of the [F]wooden peer
Where the [E]water’s deep[Am] and cold

[Am] [C] [F] [Fm] [C] [G] [F] [E] [Am]

If I should see an [C]octopus
[F]Lift its arms [Fm]out of the sea
Or [C]see its [G]shadow [F]rising up
Cross the [E]rooftops above the [Am]streets

I’d follow those dan[C]cing limbs
To the [F]spinning edge [Fm]of the sky
[C]Where all the [G]boats fall [F]off the world
Into [E]the octopusâ?[Am] ?™s eye

[G]
Thatâ?[C] ?™s why I know I shouldn’t go
On a [F]cruise across the [Fm]sea

But I [C]know that [G]no one [F]has to know
If I [C]take an [G]evening [F]stroll
[C]Down to the [G]end of the [F]wooden peer
Where the [E]water’s deep[Am] and cold

[G]
Thatâ?[C] ?™s why I try and stay away
From [F]seashore holid[Fm]ays

But I [C]know that [G]no one [F]has to know
If I [C]take an [G]evening [F]stroll
[C]Down to the [G]end of the [F]wooden peer
Where the [E]water’s deep[Am] and cold

[G] [C]
