E                G#m7 C#m                      G#m
I’d like to be,                under the sea
         A                                 H
In an octopus’ garden in the shade.

He’d let us in,               knows where we’ve been
          A                                  H
in his octupus’ garden, in the shade.

C#m                                              C#m7
I’d ask my friends to come and see
A                 H                      E
An octopus’ garden with me
               G#m7 C#m                  G#m
I’d like to be             under the sea
         A              H7                        E
In an octopus’ garden in the shade.

We would be warm, below the storm
In our little hideaway beneath the waves
Resting our head, on the sea bed
In an octopus’ 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’ garden in the shade

E                     G#m7 C#m                   G#m
We would shout            and swim about
       A                                      H
The coral that lies beneath the waves.
E               G#m7  C#m                  G#m
Oh what joy for    every girl and boy,
A                                                    H
Knowing they’re happy and they’re safe.

C#m                                              C#m7
We would be so happy you and me.
A                                                  H
No one there to tell us what to do.
E               G#m7  C#m 
I’d like to be                 under the sea
G#m  A              H7            C#m
In an octopus’ garden with you
G#m  A              H7            C#m
In an octupus’ garden with you
G#m  A              H7            E    Eb  E
In an octupus’ garden with you.
