The Yacht Club chords by Owl City

Chords with lyrics

Artist: Owl City
Album: All Things Bright and Beautiful

Capo: 1st Fret

This song is on the fast side, so you have to be quick with the chords! I
played it by ear so it might not be 100% accurate, but it sounds pretty
close at least. I also added all of the instrumental bits in the middle
(they can be pretty tricky if you want to time it just right with the song)
which are optional to play. Enjoy!

[INTRO]
G+G C majorC FF C majorC (4x)

[VERSE 1]
FF    C majorC   G+G     C majorC   FF
My raw candy passion is bitter-sweet,
 C majorC    G+G
Onto the teeth,
 FF        C majorC        G+G
'Cause she would rather fall in chocolate,
   C majorC    FF   C majorC       G+G
Than fall in love, especially with me.
  DmDm  C majorC     FF  G+G
I stood under the waterfall,
    DmDm   C majorC    FF  G+G
With a kiwi pineapple parasol,
DmDm   C majorC           FF   G+G
As Cinderella dropped the crystal ball,
       A minorAm   E7E7      C majorC     DmDm   FF  F minorFm
And made a concrete cavern of caterpillar concert hall.

[CHORUS]
            G+G  A minorAm FF  C majorC   G+G  A minorAm C majorC  FF
I wish that we could sail our sad days away, forever,
   G+G  A minorAm  FF    C majorC   G+G
In deep blue seas of paper maché,
     A minorAm       C majorC
(Let's dance in the moonlight!)
   FF     G+G  A minorAm FF  C majorC  G+G  A minorAm C majorC FF
 A augmentedA barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,
    G+G  A minorAm  FF    C majorC      G+G
Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,
    A minorAm      C majorC
(And dance in the moonlight!)
   FF       C majorC
 When we join The Yacht Club.

[VERSE 2]
FF       C majorC   G+G      C majorC      FF
I would rather go swimming with great white sharks,
   C majorC     G+G  C majorC
Than wade in romance,
FF          C majorC     G+G     C majorC      FF     C majorC    G+G
'Cause I can never find the courage to ask her to dinner, or even to dance,
DmDm      C majorC     FF  G+G
Don't sweat under your overcoat,
      DmDm     C majorC     FF   G+G
'Cause my heart can't hover this paddle boat,
 DmDm       C majorC       FF   G+G
You'll hit the bottom of the highest note,
      A minorAm  E7E7        C majorC     DmDm     FF  F minorFm
And the chatty tree frogs will never wanna leave your throat.

[CHORUS]

In deep blue seas of paper maché,
     A minorAm       C majorC
(Let's dance in the moonlight!)

(Let go of the world you know,

And plug in the party lights)
DmDm            C majorC
Soak your cares in the solar flares,
    FF           G+G
That light up these island nights,

(Orange eclipse, I can taste your lips,

In the citrus afternoon)
