Sharks

C#m             B             E
Don't mess with my salt water high

Straight after you left me out to dry
C#m               B
I'm calling it in, I'm calling you out
E
There's nothing to talk about

[Pre-Chorus]

  C#m               B
I die just a little inside
      E
An ashtray on a motorbike
C#m         B                E
Don't hit me when my cards are down

When my cards are down

[Chorus]

A            C#m        E         B
I live on an island surrounded by sharks
A                C#m                   E           B
And everything I do is keeping me and you oceans apart
                   A          C#m
You know that I've tried my best now
                E           F#m
I've had enough of this mess now
A            C#m                  E
I live on an island, I live on an island
   B
An island in my heart

[Verse 2]

C#m             B          E
It's not unlike me to evaporate

When polite conversation heads my way
C#m            B                 E
I'm phoning it in and zoning you out

There's nothing to talk about

[Pre-Chorus]

C#m                      B
I try not to act so cold
  E
A trapdoor on a life-boat
C#m            B               E
Don't hit me when my cards are down

When my cards are down

[Chorus]

A            C#m        E         B
I live on an island surrounded by sharks
A                C#m                   E           B
And everything I do is keeping me and you oceans apart
                   A          C#m
You know that I've tried my best now
                E           F#m
I've had enough of this mess now
A            C#m                  E
I live on an island, I live on an island
   B
An island in my heart


[Bridge]

C#m
E                  F#m
Don't mess with my saltwater high

C#m
E                  F#m       A    C#m
Don't mess with my saltwater high
E           B
Ooooh ooooh ooh

[Chorus]

A            C#m        E         B
I live on an island surrounded by sharks
A                C#m                   E           B
And everything I do is keeping me and you oceans apart
                   A          C#m
You know that I've tried my best now
                E           F#m
I've had enough of this mess now
A            C#m                  E
I live on an island, I live on an island
   B            C#m
An island in my heart
