Bbmaj7         Gm7
I wish I was a turtle
Cm7                F7
I would live life so slow
Bbmaj7          Gm7
Gala-lapagas turtle i mean tortoise
Cm7                    F7
And I’ve sworn this since long ago

[Chorus 1]
Ebmaj7                           Bbmaj7
Wouldn’t you say that I couldn’t hear your screams and shouts
Ebmaj7                       Bbmaj7
Most of the time I’ve got my head inside of my house
Ebmaj7              Gm7          C9            F7
When I wanna say hello to one of my good friends
 F7 
I peak my head out
 F7 
Say What’s Up
Eb5         Bbmaj7
Then go back in

[Verse 2]
Bbmaj7         Gm7
I wish I was a turtle
Cm7                F7
I’d never be in no rush
Bbmaj7          Gm7
Gala-lapagas tortoise I mean turtle
Cm7                    F7
Just lurking around in the galapagos

[Chorus 2]
Ebmaj7                           Bbmaj7
Wouldn’t you say I couldn’t hear you very well
Ebmaj7                       Bbmaj7
Call me Barack Obama I enjoy being inside “my shell”
Ebmaj7              Gm7          C9            F7
When I wanna say hello to one of my good friends
 F7 
I peak my head out
 F7 
Say What’s Up
     Eb5    Bbmaj7
Then go back in

[Verse 3]
Bbmaj7         Gm7
I wish I was a turtle
Cm7                F7
Just doing things that turtles do
Bbmaj7                 Gm7
Just walking slow and eating grass
                              Cm7
And living for a really long time
                           F7
It’d be like a dream come true

[Chorus 3]
Ebmaj7                           Bbmaj7
Wouldn’t you say that my shell is 80% soundproof
Ebmaj7                           Bbmaj7
I wish I was a turtle, and that’s the god honest true  ye eye 
Ebmaj7              Gm7          C9            F7
When I wanna say hello to one of my good friends
 F7 
I peak my head out
 F7 
Say What’s Up
     Eb5    Bbmaj7
Then go back in
