If I was an oyster, Id close right up and be shy
A F#m E
Down there at the bottom the deep blue sea
E F#m A E
Mindin my own business while the fish, they go swimmin by
A F#m E
Cruisin around in schools above me
E F#m A
Lifes too short to be shy
E F#m A B
Its over in the blink of an eye
C#m
Its a fabulous world
B
Full of all kinds of people
A F#m E
(You can) get to know them in good time
You can get to know them in good time
When I was a kid, I used to sit at the side of the playground
And watch all the kids playin games and runnin all around
Then the bell would ring and we would line upgo inside
I would think I couldve made some friends if I just tried (if I just tried)
Chorus
They say they best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago
But the second best time is right now today
Crawlin all out of your shell can be slow, so I know
If your try, youll blink and bashfulness will just wash away
Chorus
