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
