C
wake up in the morning 
G6
there's a brand new day ahead 
Am
the sun is bright and the clouds smile down 
F
and all your friends are dead 


C
but the ocean is so friendly 
G6
the bright blue diamond stratosphere 
Am
and you know you're gonna have buckets of fun 
F
as soon as you can get out of here 


G            F

     C                          G6
last night he murdered all your friends
G           F
hiding from skipper plumbthroat
    C         G6        C
you gotta run from your end 


C  
he came last night when you were all asleep 
G6
and you narrowly avoided death 
Am,
you hid behind a rock while he got to work
F 
now there's no buddies to tangle with 


C
you swim and swim and swim some more 
G6
to find a new squiddle colony 
Am
and though there's hope you really can't help 
F
but feel just a little bit lonely

C                               G6

squiddles need friends 
E              F
