Intro:
C majorC D MajorD G+G E minorEm x2
C majorC G+G
Sitting in the big black oven
E minorEm F#F#
What a clever place to hide
B7B7 C majorC
With my eyes wide open
A minorAm B7B7
My face is a flaming pie
C majorC G+G
Bare-naked in the kitchen
E minorEm F#F#
And everyone sleeping tight
B7B7 C majorC
The clock goes to seven
A minorAm B7B7
I dance but I don't know why
E minorEm G+G
I'm standing in the schoolyard
C majorC B7B7
Waiting for my teacher to come
A minorAm E minorEm
She looks gently downward
Cdim7Cdim7 B7B7
And picks me up in the sun

E minorEm G+G C majorC B7B7
A minorAm E minorEm Cdim7Cdim7 B7B7
C majorC G+G
I'm chewing cloudflakes
E minorEm F#F#
I'm falling apart
B7B7 C majorC
One with my mind tapes
A minorAm B7B7
One for my heart
C majorC G+G
I'm making mistakes
E minorEm F#F#
When I'm counting stars
B7B7 C majorC
One when the light brakes
A minorAm B7B7
One in the dark
E minorEm G+G
I'm standing in the shelter
C majorC B7B7
Waiting for my mother to come
A minorAm E minorEm
She left me in winter
Cdim7Cdim7 B7B7
And she'll pick me up in the fall
Instrumental:
C majorC D MajorD G+G E minorEm x4
C minorCm E minorEm
The ocean is friendly
E minorEm F#F#
The ocean is mine
B7B7 C majorC
Caught in my bathtub
A minorAm B7B7
With a fishing line
C majorC G+G
Little fishes swimming in the shallows
E minorEm F#F#
Little fishes driving me mad
B7B7 C majorC
Two more fishes to swallow
A minorAm B7B7
So they cannot eat me back
