Intro: A (A)  (A)   E

Verse 1:

C#m                  AI still remember the words you said
F#m                       B       G#They were hard enough to leave a mark
C#m                 AAnd now they echo inside my head
F#m                B      G#As I spiral down into the dark
A                 EI windmill upside down
F#m                 C#m    BKnowing you'll come at me again
A                      F#mAnd I feel your shadow pass above me


Chorus:

Esus E  Esus EOctopus
             Esus E  Esus ESome kind of octopus
           Bm         F#mTearing my shell apart
            C#m   Letting the sea get in
    A                           EYou make my insides outside


Verse 2:

C#m                  AI don't think I ever saw you blink
F#m                         B      G#You were so controlled that no one knew
C#m                    AAnd by the time we all stopped to think
F#m                 B        G#We were already too close to you
A                   ENow you keep coming by
F#m             C#m        BTelling me it's not what I think
      A             F#mBut I know a murder when I see one


Chorus:

Esus E  Esus EOctopus
             Esus E  Esus ESome kind of octopus
           Bm         F#mTearing my shell apart
            C#m   Letting the sea get in
    AYou make my insides outside


Bridge:

A        B             A             BAnd far above me I can see the world
A        B             A    BReceding slowly out of view
A           B               A            BThe sinking feeling that my worst mistake
A           B                 AWas all the time I spent with you

Verse 3:

N.C.You said you're sorry, you said you'd try
But you never did, I guess we're done
Now bits of pieces of me float by
And I die in front of everyone
And you're already gone
Halfway to wherever you sleep
And you make me wish I never met you

Chorus:

Esus E  Esus EOctopus
             Esus E  Esus ESome kind of octopus
           Bm         F#mTearing my shell apart
            C#m   Letting the sea get in
    AYou make my insides outside
