The G/A chord is weird I know, but I saw him play it on a video. He uses his baby 
finger to play it.


Intro riff (you can figure out the rhythm because I'm too lazy to write it up)is as follows:

              D                 G(play for a bit)
E---2---0---2---5---2---0---2---3-----------------3---3--]

Lyrics/Chords:

*Play Intro*

(Verse 1)
G
Yeah come on down

Dsus4           Dsus3
To the bottom of the sea

G
Yeah come on down

Dsus4           Dsus3
There's room right next to me.

Bm                        G
I'm tired of getting even let's get odd, odd, baby

Dsus4                Dsus3         D
And live life at the bottom of the sea.


*Play intro again*


(Verse 2)
G
Too many cars (boop)

Dsus4           Dsus3
Drinking too much gasoline

G
There's no good news

Dsus4           Dsus3
On the TV screen

Bm                               G
There's a hole up in the sky, so come on baby dive

Dsus4                Dsus3         D
And live life at the bottom of the sea



(Chorus)
G        Dsus4      Bm            Dsus3
Tried my best to be someone else, someone else

G        Dsus4      Em7
Tried my best to be someone else instead but

G        Dsus4      Bm            Dsus3
Tried my best to be someone else, someone else

G        Dsus4          G/A
And now there's nothing left...

G
...But me



*Play Intro riff*


(Bridge)
C#m    E                  A         E
If the morning light ever calls you backwards

C#m    E                A
If the surface begs you on

C#m    E                  A         E
If the morning light ever calls you backwards

A                 [ch]B#m[/ch]
Don't be gone too long

A                       [ch]B#m[/ch]
Don't leave me here all alone

(Alone...)


*Play intro riff*


(Verse 3)
G
Yeah come on down

Dsus4            Dsus3
To the bottom of the sea

Oh come on down

Dsus4            Dsus3
Yeah there's room right next to me

Bm                        G
I'm tired of getting even let's get odd, odd, baby

Dsus4                Dsus3         D
And live life at the bottom of the sea.
