 DMy body's Em7strong, Dbut my will is Em7weak
 DI got pretty nice Em7arms, but I Dhate my beakEm7  
And the Gdolphins are all A7sus4phonies

But they preGtend to be your A7sus4friend
Until they Gsee you at your A7sus4worst and then they Dleave you
Without a Cadd9word they swim G/Baway

I can Gsee the sails unA7sus4folding
Stretching Gwhite against the A7sus4sky and I forDgive them
I forCadd9give and I let G/Bgo

Maybe I am better off alone

G A7 D

and I crush everything

Intro Riff

Verse 2

D Em7 D Em7

My body's strong, but my will is weak

D Em7 D Em7

I got pretty nice arms, but I hate my beak

G A7sus4

And the dolphins are all phonies

G A7sus4

They seem nice enough at first

But they pretend to be your friend

G A7sus4 D

Until they see you at your worst and then they leave you

Without a word they swim away

G A7 Bm

and I crush everything

And every thing I love I break

And every night I lie awake

Verse 3

D Em7 D Em7

Did the stars come out? Did the world spin round?

D Em7 Em7

Does it matter that much when you're ten miles down?

G A7sus4

In the light that filters down

G A7sus4

Into my giant yellow eye

G A7sus4

I can see the sails unfolding

G A7sus4 D

Stretching white against the sky and I forgive them

Cadd9 G/B

I forgive and I let go

Maybe I am better off alone
