  			Am                 F             Dm                 Am 
Don't touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head, 
Am                 F             Dm                 Am 
Dredging the Great White Sharks, swimming in the bed, 
Am              F           Dm           Am 
Here comes a Killer Whale, to sing me to sleep, 
Am              F           Dm           Am 
Thrashing the covers off, it has me by its teeth, 

C               Dm          Am                F  
And oh my love remind me, what was it that I said? 
C               Dm          Am                F  
I can't help but pull the earth around me, to make my bed 
C               Dm          Am                F   
And oh my love remind me, what was it that I did? 
C 
Did I drink too much? 
Dm 
Am I losing touch? 
Am                                     F 
Did I build this ship to wreck?

Am                F       Dm             Am 
What's with the long face? Do you want more? 
Am                   F         Dm             Am 
Thousands of red-eyed mice, scratching at the door, 
Am                F                Dm             Am 
Don't let the curtain catch you, cos you've been here before, 
Am                     F           Dm                Am 
The chair is an island darling, you can't touch the floor,

F              G                          Am   
And good god, under star disguise we are lost, 
F                              G   
And into the breach we got tossed, 
 Am                      F 
And the water's coming in fast!
