C# If you're the bird, Whenever we pretend it's summer, Then I'm the worm, I know the part, it's such a bummer, F# But fair is fair, If my segments get separated, A#m G# I'll scream and you'll be there. Close your eyes (Close my eyes) Slide the cotton off of your shoulder And feel the shine (Feel the shine) I'm hooked so toss me over And cast the line (Well, I'll try) I'll throw a party and greet my undersea friends (It depends) As they arrive (If they arrive) Chorus: C# G# D#m F# You and I left our troubles far behind (troubles far behind), C# G# B F# But I still have just one more question on my mind, C# G# A#m F# For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas, C# G# B F# With friends like these well, who needs enemies? If I'm your boy Let's take a shortcut we remember And we'll enjoy Picking apples in late September like We've done for years Then we'll take a long walk Through the cornfield And I'll kiss you Between the ears If you're my girl Swirl me around your room with feeling And as we twirl The glow in the dark stars on your ceiling Will shine for us As love sweeps over the room Because we tend to make Each other blush (You make me blush) Chorus: You and I left our troubles far behind (Troubles far behind) But I still have just one more question on my mind For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas With fronds like these, well Who needs anemones? You're the bird, I'm the worm And it's plain to see That we were meant to be We were meant to be We were meant to be If you're the bird If you're the bird Then I'm the worm We were meant to be You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#m  B  C#  D#m  F#  G#  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
