Chorus 1:
G         Am
 The world is an oyster
Bm      Em  C
 locked in a shell
G       Am
 You like the taste of
    Bm       C
it but can't take the smell

Post Chorus: G--Am--Bm--Em-C-G--Am--Bm--C--

Verse 1:
Bm
 I can't sleep
      C
to save my life
The day is done
      G
but I don't think
 D/F#  Em  C
I got it right
Bm
 I don't want to
      C
kiss right now
You're probably just
        G
what I need but I
    D/F#   Em  C
can't stand your mouth

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Verse 2:
Bm             C
 I dot my t's and cross my i's
Pretend that I can write
 G       D/F#
I haven't got a nice
     Em C Bm
thing to say  about
     C
anyone except the one
Who caught me staring
  G   D/F#  Em C
so I just walked away

Bridge:
D
 No one likes to give
  Em
themselves over
      C
to an empty bed
If you're gonna
      G
sleep like that
     Am
Then you might
      C
as well be dead
D
 But you still want
    Em
all the covers
And no hair
       C
tickling your face

You're so proud
      G
of your physique
     Am
But you still
     C
want your cake
   D
I got it

Chorus 2:
G         Am
 The world is an oyster
Bm      Em  C
 locked in a shell
G       Am
 You like the taste of
    Bm       C
it but can't take the smell
G         Am
 The world is an oyster
Bm      Em  C
 locked in a shell
G       Am
 You like the taste of
    Bm       C  G(Hold)
it but can't take the smell
