Seafood

Chords

Standard

I've never eaten a lobster
G Gmaj7
Because I've seen them in their prime
Cmaj7 Am D
Sitting in the tank beside the doorway
G Gmaj7
And if they could see it your way
Cmaj7
They would probably start to cry
Am

And the salt water from their tears
D Em
Would wash away all of their fears
G
As they'd remember all the years
Em
They spent so happy in the wild
D

And then one day the big men came
Em
To make them play a fishy game
G
Of Russian Roulette for crustaceans
Em
Fifty lobsters, seven nations
G N.C.
Waiting for the sweaty clientelle
Em D C
To pick them out for boiling water hell.
C D

I've never eaten a lobster
G Gmaj7
Not that I haven't had the opportunity
Cmaj7 Am D
Other food is so guilt free
G
And in this case the killer's me
Em
And while it's sitting on your plate
G
Regrets would come but it's too late
Em
And seafood's such a very tricky dish
G D C
And nothing's more emotional than fish
C D

G Gmaj7 Cmaj7 D A
G Gmaj7

Oh oh oh
Cmaj7
Nothing's more emotional than fish.
Am D G
