Intro: A augmentedA (A augmentedA) (A augmentedA)  E MajorE

Verse 1:

C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
I still remember the words you said
F# minorF#m            BB    G#G#
They were hard enough to leave a mark
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
And now they echo inside my head
F# minorF#m        BB   G#G#
As I spiral down into the dark
A augmentedA         E MajorE
I windmill upside down
F# minorF#m         C# minorC#m  BB
Knowing you'll come at me again
A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
And I feel your shadow pass above me

Chorus:

EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
Octopus
       EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
Some kind of octopus
      B minorBm     F# minorF#m
Tearing my shell apart
      C# minorC#m
Letting the sea get in
  A augmentedA              E MajorE
You make my insides outside


Verse 2:

C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
I don't think I ever saw you blink
F# minorF#m             BB   G#G#
You were so controlled that no one knew
C# minorC#m          A augmentedA
And by the time we all stopped to think
F# minorF#m         BB    G#G#
We were already too close to you
A augmentedA          E MajorE
Now you keep coming by
F# minorF#m       C# minorC#m    BB
Telling me it's not what I think
   A augmentedA       F# minorF#m
But I know a murder when I see one

Chorus:

EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
Octopus
       EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
Some kind of octopus
      B minorBm     F# minorF#m
Tearing my shell apart
      C# minorC#m
Letting the sea get in
  A augmentedA
You make my insides outside


Bridge:

A augmentedA    BB       A augmentedA       BB
And far above me I can see the world
A augmentedA    BB       A augmentedA  BB
Receding slowly out of view
A augmentedA      BB        A augmentedA      BB
The sinking feeling that my worst mistake
A augmentedA      BB         A augmentedA
Was 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:

EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
Octopus
       EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE
Some kind of octopus
      B minorBm     F# minorF#m
Tearing my shell apart
      C# minorC#m
Letting the sea get in
  A augmentedA
