The Beatles

"Octopus's Garden"

(Richard Starkey)

1. [F]I'd like to be [Dm]under the sea

In an [Bb]Octopus's [F]Garden in the s[C7]hade.

[F]He'd let us in, [Dm]knows where we've been,

In his [Bb]Octopus's [F]Garden in the s[C7]hade.

[Dm]I'd ask my friends to come and see

[Bb]An Octopus's [C]Garden with me.

[F]I'd like to be [Dm]under the sea

In an [Bb]Octopus's [C7]Garden in the s[F]hade.

2. We would be warm below the storm

In our little hideaway beneath the waves.

Resting our head on the sea bed

In an Octopus's Garden near a cave.

We would sing and dance around

Because we know we can't be found.

I'd like to be under the sea

In an Octopus's Garden in the shade.

3. We would shout and swim about

The coral that lies beneath the waves.

Oh, what joy for every girl and boy

Knowing they're happy and they're safe.

We would be so happy, you and me.

No one there to tell us what to do.

I'd like to be under the sea

In an Octopus's Garden with you.
